After four successful Leaders Forums in 2009, GoldenNetworking.com will kick off 2010 with America Leaders Forum 2010, on January 21st; upcoming Leaders Forums will cover Distressed Investing, Hedge Funds, Banking M&A, Venture Capital and Real Estate
New York, NY, December 30, 2009 — GoldenNetworking.com will host America Leaders Forum 2010, “Meeting the Job Creation Challenge” (http://www.AmericaLeadersForum.com), on January 21st in New York City. This transformative forum is organized in response to President Obama’s challenge to the private sector to identify initiatives that create jobs and grow the economy.
America Leaders Forum 2010, “Meeting the Job Creation Challenge” will focus on developing medium and long term proposals to ensure sustained job creation for the next 20 years, and will feature Chief Executive Officers, SMB owners, labor leaders, economist and experts who will debate a set of medium and long-term recommendations to be presented to President Obama on time for his State of the Union address. Topics to be covered include:
Job Creation in the Global Economy: The paradigm of the old economy was to encourage the addition of thousands of laborers to massive factories, manufacturing plants and government-funded infrastructure projects as epitome of job creation. Is this concept still valid in today’s globalized economy? Shall we progressively move from the job creation paradigm to the entrepreneurship model? Is America going to be defined by its multinationals’ prowess or by its entrepreneurial ingenuity exemplified by Silicon Valley?
Making the Private Sector Successful in Adding Jobs in America: Some pundits are calling for temporary tax credits to the private sector to hire more workers. Knowing that a quarter of U.S. jobs are fully out-sourceable over time to other countries, shouldn’t a tax credit (or other ? measures) focus on encouraging investment in areas that can position America for continued global leadership? Which are those strategic areas that deserve support from the government? Would there still be place for fiscal stimulus with rounds of labor-intensive projects?
Turbo Charging Small and Medium-sized Businesses to Create the Jobs of the Future: While the official unemployment rate is 10.2% and 200,000 jobs were lost in October, little attention has been paid to the number of small businesses that are either downsizing or downright closing. What type of fiscal stimulus would be best to encourage unemployed workers to start small businesses? Should the government re-allocate some of its procurement expenses to small businesses? How to encourage Corporate America to involve start-ups in their growth plans?
Meeting the Education Challenge to Ensure Continued Job Creation: In a recent Newsweek article, Fareed Zakaria points out that Silicon Valley grew in the 1950s in a state that had created the best public education system, from kindergarten to Ph.D. programs. Is America producing the kind of workers needed in a knowledge-based economy? How to re-energize American education system to develop the technologies of the future? What allocation strategies are best to encourage primary science research?
