"Nearly 1,000 business, finance, government and academic leaders from around the world gathered in Los Angeles March 10-12 for the 1999 Milken Institute Global Conference." Caught the tail end of the Marketplace segment on NPR last night and heard about some very interesting viewpoints with regards to the current and future world economy shared by an NPR attendee to the conference. I took the liberty of finding the URL which will give those interested a detailed and highly organized look at what took place. Fascinating stuff IMO. milken-inst.org "Michael Milken is chairman of the Milken Institute, an organization focusing on economic growth, job formation, and access to financial capital. He is a philanthropist who founded and chairs CaP CURE (Association for the Cure of Cancer of the Prostate), a nonprofit public charity that is the largest private funder of prostate cancer research. In 1982 he co-founded the Milken Family Foundation, which funds extensive programs in education and health care. He co-founded and chairs Knowledge Universe, a family of companies that meets knowledge needs. Widely credited with revolutionizing the modern capital marketplace, he has been instrumental in building thousands of companies worldwide. He received his MBA from the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School."
