Sponsored by the Tuck School of Business chapter of the Adam Smith Society: 

Have you wondered why America’s infrastructure has fallen so far behind our developed peers? Why are our subways running with continual delays, our highways are falling part, and our ports and locks have badly deferred maintenance? Politicians across the aisle have agreed for decades that we need to improve our infrastructure, but it continues to deteriorate without any large-scale progress. What are the solutions to our infrastructure woes? Can private sector investment help?

 

Join the Adam Smith Society Wednesday, October 21 from 12-1 pm EDT for an enlightening discussion with three experts on the state of America’s infrastructure and potential public-private solutions to address this critical issue. Featuring Nicole Gelinas, journalist and Manhattan Institute Senior Fellow, Chris Ward, Executive Vice President for Bravo, Inc. and former EVP and Chief Executive for Metro New York at AECOM and former lead of the World Trade Center rebuilding effort, and Rick Geddes, Director of the Cornell Program in Infrastructure Policy.
