In this first of a three-part series, investor, philanthropist and author Antoine van Agtmael and editor-in-chief Atul Singh discuss the global economy, the return of stagflation, the US-China clean tech race and the drivers of transformation to a green energy economy.
Agtmael is a legendary investor who came up with the term “emerging markets” and was the chair of the board of trustees of National Public Radio (NPR). Agtmael’s distinguished track record as an investor and his rich professional career make him uniquely suited to read the tea leaves for the global economy and the future of clean tech.
