Public, Private Sector to Debate Washington's 'New Order' of Business at Bloomberg Washington Summit

November 11, 2009 11:37 AM EST

WHAT:

An assembly of the new Who's Who -- a day-and-a-half of conversations and in-depth interviews with more than 25 administration decision makers, CEOs, elected officials and opinion leaders, to discuss what has been, so far, left unsaid.

WHY:

Two major events have created a shift in the balance of economic power. First, the global economic crisis has created a new intersection between politics and the boardroom. Government is now driving business, not the other way around. Second, the Obama administration has swept a new group of insiders into Washington's ecosystem of power.

WHO:

More than a series of speeches and beyond the usual policy conference, those gathering at the Bloomberg Washington Summit include:

    --  Richard Trumka, President, AFL-CIO
    --  General David Petraeus, Commander, U.S. Central Command
    --  Nancy-Ann DeParle, Director, White House Office of Health Reform
    --  Alan B. Krueger, Chief Economist and Assistant Secretary for Economic
        Policy, U.S. Department of the Treasury
    --  Aneesh Chopra, Assistant to the President and Chief Technology Officer,
        White House Office of Science and Technology Policy
    --  Adolfo Carrion, Jr., Director, White House Office of Urban Affairs
