KEYNOTE SPEAKER: Congressman John K. Delaney, D-Maryland
Introduced as the only former CEO of a publicly traded company now serving in the US House
Delaney:
Places that do well are those that have great relationships among private and public and philanthropy sectors. How do we coordinate all these great resources, talent and capital.
What's concerning: There are a lot of needs, a lot of people are struggling and dealing with the macro changes that are coming in the world. Global interconnection is changing the world's economy. It's been a blessing for some people. It's been really challenging for other people. Needs really great.
Delaney has a bipartisan infrastructure bill in the Congress -- 40 Dems and 40 GOP on it. Deals with problems of international tax systems. "A lot of people have been watching how much money is accumulating overseas," he says his bill woudl repatriate that witih tax law changes but require the money be used for infrastructure improvements. http://delaneyforcongress.com/tag/infrastructure/
Trying to bring together the best ideas of progressive and conservative moments rather "than some mushy compromise."
Need to get private market innovation into the public sector.
