Bernard Schwartz Forums on Economic Policy

In 2006, NDN formally launched an exciting new Globalization Initiative, a multi-year effort that brings together progressives from across the country and the political spectrum to discuss and debate how globalization works today, and determine what policymakers can do to make sure corporations, capital and the American people all prosper in the 21st century global economy.

As part of NDN’s Globalization Initiative, Bernard Schwartz in 2007 began providing support for a new, high-level set of events to advance the case that the United States is well-positioned for globalization as a national economy and has the resources to undertake investments in infrastructure, research and development, and access to health care, and the education and skills of Americans for national economic success in the 21st century. Called the Bernard Schwartz Forums on Economic Policy, these high-level discussions will take place in the San Francisco Bay Area, New York and Washington, D.C., over the next year.
