TODAY 3:30PM ET/1:30PM MT | Tune into the Aspen Economic Strategy Group's event, "Strengthening America's Economic Dynamism," LIVE from Aspen. Americans are facing an era of economic reconfiguration driven by rising global tensions, technological change, and a populist backlash to the economic status quo. Leaders on both sides of the political aisle are increasingly turning away from free-market principles and endorsing protectionist trade policies and government industrial policy. This shift threatens to end an era characterized by international economic cooperation and broad-based global growth. What does this trend mean for America’s economic dynamism? What steps should US policy and business leaders take to advance innovation, growth, and widespread economic prosperity? Featuring AESG Director Melissa S. Kearney, in conversation with Lawrence H. Summers and Robert B. Zoellick. Livestream: https://lnkd.in/g7vzAsuc Event Webpage: https://lnkd.in/gJx_nJU6

Semiconductors are in almost everything we buy – not just smartphones and computers, but cars and dishwashers too – and they are all over the news right now. Shortages during the pandemic exposed just how fragile our supply of this critical technology is. To bolster America’s semiconductor security, Congress passed the CHIPS and Science Act in 2022. The Biden Administration has been working to implement this landmark law - an undertaking that touches on US technology policy, workforce development, and national security. We've organized a great panel on June 3 at The Aspen Institute's DC office to take stock of how this massive effort is going and to discuss what’s next, featuring: Michael Schmidt, Director of the @Chips for Am CHIPS Program Office at the US Department of Commerce Chris Miller, Author of Chip War, the authoritative book on the history of the semiconductor industry Greg Ip, the Chief Economics Correspondent at The Wall Street Journal Timothy Geithner, 74th Secretary of the Treasury and Aspen Economic Strategy Group Co-Chair, will offer opening remarks.

Register now for the AESG's upcoming event, "Semiconductor Security: The Race to Revitalize US Chip Manufacturing," happening Monday, June 3rd at 11 am ET. The 2022 CHIPS and Science Act is the centerpiece of the federal government’s efforts to rebuild America’s industrial capacity and secure greater independence in the production of critical technologies. Under the law, tens of billions of dollars in subsidies for manufacturing advanced chips have already been announced. This panel will assess this effort, its prospects for success, and how the law, and similar government efforts to promote critical technologies, will affect the US economy in the short and long-term. Featuring Michael Schmidt, Director of the CHIPS Program Office at the U.S. Department of Commerce and Chris Miller, Author of Chip War, in conversation with Greg Ip, Chief Economics Commentator at The Wall Street Journal, and opening remarks from former U.S. Treasury Secretary and AESG Co-Chair Timothy F.

New federal data shows that worker productivity in the US is growing at a pace not seen since the 1990s. In his recent Op-Ed in the The Washington Post, AESG Policy Director Luke Pardue breaks down how the surge in small business creation since 2020 is one of the main drivers of this upswing in productivity. https://lnkd.in/gBUsK7Vv Luke expands on the data behind the recent rise in US labor productivity in his latest IN BRIEF.

“The best-kept secret in the United States is that we are experiencing a productivity boom right now,” Luke Pardue, the policy director of the Aspen Economic Strategy Group, writes in Opinions. “And it’s not because of AI.”

The US has seen an encouraging rise in labor productivity over the past year -- after nearly two decades of sluggish growth. Buzzy trends like AI have potential to transform worker productivity over the long-term, but one under-the-radar trend is more likely to be driving the recent surge: the post-pandemic new business boom. The US saw more new business applications in 2023 than in any year since the Census started tracking this data 20 years ago. These new business create competition and bring new innovations to market, driving productivity growth across the economy. As #SmallBusinessWeek begins, check out my piece in the Washington Post outlining how this group of young, small businesses could kick-start a new period of strong growth -- and what we can do to support them. https://lnkd.in/e-APtxHP
