Innovation and technology are key drivers of the American economy today: computer and information technology jobs are expected to grow over 20 percent by 2020, and each job in a high-tech industry creates an estimated five additional jobs in other sectors. Because the U.S. tech market is predicted to grow over six percent this year alone, it will be critical to ensure that technology companies have the talent necessary to generate innovation and manage growth. Despite evidence suggesting a diverse workforce enhances both business performance and innovation, minorities and women are still underrepresented in technology companies. In this session, filmed by CGI America’s 2015 broadcast partner Bloomberg TV and moderated by host Betty Liu, guests will:
• Explore the current and future economic impact of information technology and its associated businesses.
• Discuss the challenges in recruiting, hiring, and retaining the workforce necessary to generate and manage innovation.
• Examine how to scale and replicate model programs and partnerships to build a strong and diverse talent pipeline.
This session will be filmed for broadcast by Bloomberg TV. No video or still cameras will be allowed. Print reporters may attend; however content from the sessions is under embargo per the discretion of each network. Please contact the appropriate network for footage requests and embargo rules.

On March 30, Global Economy and Development at Brookings and the Modernizing Foreign Assistance Network (MFAN) hosted Gayle Smith, administrator of U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) for an address on the fifth anniversary of the USAID policy on evaluation.
A principal recommendation of the Presidential Policy Determination on Global Development, signed by President Obama in 2010, was greater accountability for U.S. foreign assistance funds, including evaluation of development programs. In 2011, USAID adopted a formal policy on evaluation and since has average some 200 evaluations a year.
Among the issues that will be addressed during the event are the success and challenges in implementing the evaluation policy, the use of alternative evaluation methods, and building a system and process for turning evaluations into learning. Administrator Smith was introduced by Brookings Senior Fellow George Ingram. Following her address, he moderated a panel discussion of Ruth Levine, Wade Warren, and Jodi Nelson.
