Washington power players are transforming the economy — from financial regulation and trade deals to immigration and industrial policy — with consequences that reach well beyond Wall Street and Silicon Valley. As the midterm election nears, voters’ concerns about rising household expenses will bring mounting political pressure.

Join POLITICO’s Economy Summit for urgent conversations with government and industry leaders about the policy decisions that will determine tomorrow’s market risks and opportunities.

A government-issued ID will be required for entry.
