How to reset the economy — for good. | | COVID has made it clear that our economy doesn’t work for everyone. In this pandemic recession, financial devastation stalks historically precarious populations — people of color, women, front line workers, and small business owners. On the macro-level, addressing climate change and reestablishing the US as a global economic leader loom large. The job of building an equitable economy is enormous, but the world is awash with great ideas. In concert with Bloomberg Economics, the Aspen Ideas team brings you RE$ET, Feb. 22-23. The two days include interviews, ideas from changemakers, thoughts from Main Street, and live breakout opportunities where participants can interact with experts. Speakers include Gina McCarthy, White House National Climate Advisor, Mariana Mazzucato, author of Mission Economy: A Moonshot Guide to Changing Capitalism, Dr. Rajiv Shah, president of the Rockefeller Foundation, Jim Clyburn, House Majority Whip, Reshma Saujani, founder of Girls Who Code and many others. | Event Details Monday, February 22 3PM EST | Plenary 1: Resetting for Equity and Inclusion4PM EST | Breakout: A National Agenda for Financial Inclusion5PM EST | Breakout: Reset the Net for American Workers6PM EST | Breakout: The Case for Funding the Arts and Resetting the Creative EconomyTuesday, February 23 12PM EST | Plenary 2: Resetting for Sustainability1PM EST | Breakout: Mythbusters Workshop on Getting to Net Zero2PM EST | Breakout: A Moonshot Guide to Changing Capitalism3PM EST | Plenary 3: Resetting U.S.'s Role in the Global Economy4PM EST | Breakout: A Marshall Plan for Moms5PM EST | Breakout: The State of Stakeholder Capitalism | | | Presented By | | In Partnership With | | Generously Underwritten By | | | |
