    A century ago, Philadelphia prided itself on being the “Workshop of the World.” In our new century, the city is poised to reclaim that title, even as the world and the work are changing. Join the Academy for a discussion of how clean energy, green technology, and collaboration between public and private entities are changing the way Philadelphia and the nation do business. Learn how innovation is driving our new economy, creating opportunities, and connecting the city to national and global trends.

    Mark Alan Hughes, Team Leader for Policy, Markets & Behavior Task Team, Greater Philadelphia Innovation Cluster for Energy-Efficient Buildings
    Mark Muro, Senior Fellow & Policy Director, The Brookings Institution Metropolitan Policy Program
