    Sean Penn, Denis O'Brien, Mindy Silverstein, Margaret Brennan, FEMALE SPEAKER 1, MARK BLYTHOUSE, JOHN MCCURRY, JOHN MCDOUGALL, DAVID LEONHARDT JR., DAVID ROCKEFELLER JR., ERIC SCHMIDT

    At the Milken Institute's Global Conference, a panel of investors and officials highlighted Haiti's robust 3.6% annual economic growth and its strategic value as a manufacturing hub under the U.S. Hope and Help Act. Speakers detailed significant strides in post-earthquake reconstruction and human capital development, citing the $100 million Heineken investment and the shift toward sustainable artisan tourism as evidence of a "mini-Brazil" trajectory. Despite political gridlock delaying the release of $300 million in aid and legislative hurdles regarding land tenure, the consensus emphasized that private sector engagement, rather than traditional NGO aid, is essential to transforming Haiti into a stable, high-return market.
