About the Program
Our recent past is, in a word, grim. The immediate future looks, in a word, tough. How do we get through this tough economy? Where will the opportunities lie? Will there even be any opportunities? Come hear leading thinkers from a range of disciplines discuss what the next 15 years hold for us in the areas of government, health care, law, land use, energy, port and trade as well as other areas — and what “Black Swans” might suddenly swim into view.
