The national economy has emerged from the depths of crisis and is showing signs of recovery and growth. Now, policy professionals are examining the fallout and proposing ideas for new regulations and institutions designed to prevent another catastrophe and promote strong, sustainable growth.

With this in mind, the GPPI Conference Committee chose as this year's theme "The Road to Sustainable Economic Recovery." Panels and speakers will discuss greening the economy, structuring domestic regulation, ensuring global economic stability, and educating the workforce.
