NORTHAMPTON, MA / ACCESSWIRE / March 11, 2024 / The Global Inclusive Growth Summit returns on April 18, 2024. As we look forward to coming back together in person and virtually, we offer these highlights from the 2023 event, hosted by Mastercard and the Aspen Institute. The Global Inclusive Growth Summit 2023 brought together private sector, social impact and government leaders to share ways to make economies more equitable.
The 2024 Global Inclusive Growth Summit, hosted by the Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth, advances real solutions to today's most pressing challenges through collaboration and candid conversation among entrepreneurs, innovators, policymakers and emerging changemakers. First held in 2019, the Summit assembles a dynamic group of cross-sector leaders who collectively address topics including financial inclusion, data science for social impact, emerging technology such as artificial intelligence, climate and the environment, women's economic empowerment and place-based development. After a decade of impact, we're excited to continue the great dialogue and work focused on driving and creating inclusive growth for all.

Originally published July 14, 2024 by Mastercard:
Digital technology holds the potential to accelerate economic development, reduce global inequality and deliver innovative partnerships to connect communities - but only if we focus it with intention. Conversely, poorly governed and deployed, technology can exacerbate these challenges and threaten basic liberties.
In this session, Samantha Power, USAID administrator and Mike Froman, Mastercard advisor (and former vice chairman) discuss how the public and private sectors can work together to build a trusted digital ecosystem that supports democratic principles and fosters inclusive and sustainable economic development.
