The pandemic placed a bright light across many of the structural and systemic gaps across the American industrial landscape. In cities and towns alike, economic disparity and decades of disinvestments have continued to polarize our politics and fray our democracy. In a post-pandemic world, changing demographics, fast evolving technology, geographical isolation, and growing income divide are working as tectonic plates colliding against one other. Can the new growth paradigm heal the broken promise of trickle-down economics and support a new attempt at building a U.S. industrial strategy? 

This session will provide a deep dive into the historical and political context of economic development policy, while setting the stage to discuss new approaches towards inclusive economic growth.
