Seventy-five business, non-profit, government and academic thought leaders, including corporate CEOs, the Mayor of Pittsburgh, university and foundation presidents and others, congregated at the Energy Innovation Center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on September 24th-26th, 2018 to examine the transformative idea of New Mutuality together.

The first day was entirely devoted to exploring the Economics of Mutuality in-depth. Sessions covered introductory concepts, practical application and mechanics, business education, the view from the development and financial investment spaces and partnering opportunities.
