Entrepreneurs are engines of job creation and economic growth. Yet, new business creation has been stalled since the end of the recession. And even before the recession, new business creation was on the decline. A "startup deficit" is afflicting the economy. The symptoms of this decline, including stalled labor force participation, low productivity growth, and wage stagnation, threaten economic growth and opportunity. To revive our economy we need to renew American entrepreneurship.
The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation invites you to attend a lunch briefing on Monday, November 16, about regulatory policy and how it is sometimes used to protect established businesses from new challengers.
Brink Lindsey, vice president for research at the Cato Institute, and Dean Baker, co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, will share the latest research findings and discuss policy implications.
Please register by November 9 by emailing Emily Fetsch at efetsch [at] kauffman.org.
