“Restoring American Economic Dynamism: New Solutions for America’s Productivity Slowdown” will be a day-long conference offering fresh ideas of how to bring back American prosperity and growth.

Or is it an inequality problem, where the United States actually has two economies, one providing high-wage jobs in information technology and finance, and the other centered on low wage service jobs and dying old industries where most of the supply chain has fled to other countries?

Most are responding to the lack of readily evident market opportunities by investing in longer-term opportunities such as alternatives, exploring private markets and turning to strategic partners. According to the latest Nacubo-Commonfund study on endowments, the share of alternatives among endowments with over $1bn has doubled in the last decade.
