State of America Summit

Jul 28, 2026

250 years in, the American experiment stands at a crossroads. Where will we go next?

Founded on bold democratic ideals, the US has continually reinvented itself: expanding civil rights, absorbing generations of immigrants, and emerging as a global superpower. Yet the very forces that have fueled our country’s growth now raise urgent questions about its future. Gathering leading thinkers, policymakers, and experts for a day of virtual conversations, the State of America Summit explores where America headed next as we approach our nation’s 250th anniversary.

How resilient are the institutions that have sustained us? What lessons can be drawn from our historic triumphs — and shortcomings? Join us as we map out a new era of the American experiment.

This program is part of 92NY Recanati-Kaplan Talks.
Supported by Craig Newmark Philanthropies in association with Take9, a cybersecurity awareness initiative promoting safer online practices to strengthen our nation’s security
An initiative of the 92NY Belfer Center for Innovation and Social Impact.
