They discussed which technologies and investments show the greatest promise with the rebuilding and recovery from COVID-19, and what policy actions would help us better rebuild locally, nationally, and globally. They also considered the role of transparency, both in the public and private sector, in supporting good governance with the rebuilding and recovery efforts.
