US Department of Health & Human Services Deputy Secretary Jim O'Neill | Future of Health Summit 2025
The "Make America Healthy Again" agenda reorients the HHS from reactive sick care to preventive health by restoring the CDC's 1946 mission, recruiting AI and scientific specialists, and prioritizing radical transparency to rebuild public trust. This strategy integrates internal AI deployment and voluntary drug price negotiations to accelerate innovation while shifting federal cooperation with states toward data-driven surveillance and SNAP-funded nutrition improvements. Although government shutdowns have impacted staff morale, the administration targets a revitalized healthcare infrastructure through updated dietary guidelines and sustainable partnerships with industry and academia to combat chronic disease and pandemic risks.

Is (De)globalization Ahead?
Adam Posen, Dani Rodrik, Jim O'Neill, Alison Nathan, Danny Roderick
At a recent economic symposium, Adam Posen, Danny Rodrick, and Jim O'Neill debated whether the post-Cold War era of globalization is facing a reversal or merely a structural shift driven by the Ukraine war and pandemic. While Posen and Rodrick warn that geopolitical friction is fragmenting the global economy into U.S. and Chinese blocs that may reinforce secular stagnation, O'Neill counters that trade growth has recently accelerated and argues for profit-focused reforms to address inequality. The consensus suggests that future economic stability will depend less on international trade frameworks and more on domestic policies prioritizing labor rights, technology dissemination, and the mitigation of inequality.
