Lost in stagnation? Japan’s economic paradox
Rosie Bloor, Jason Palmer, Noah, Trisha Pariel, Caitlin Talbot
Following Japan's historic GDP decline and monetary policy shift in 2024, economic analysts debate whether the nation's new inflation targets can overcome severe demographic headwinds and consumer purchasing power erosion. Concurrently, a comprehensive meta-analysis reveals that only 5% of animal-tested biomedical therapies reach the US market, prompting a push for advanced non-animal models despite acknowledged limitations in predicting whole-body interactions. Simultaneously, a cultural resurgence in etiquette is reshaping corporate training and digital norms as young professionals seek to navigate post-pandemic social deficits and optimize human-AI collaboration.

#Metoo: how it's changing the world
Jacob Zuma, Gigi White, Noah, Jordan Peterson, Sheryl Sandberg, Morgan Mercer, Avela Faye, Sean, James, David Fuller
Since its global explosion in October 2017, the #MeToo movement has driven legal reforms and the resignation of powerful figures while simultaneously exposing systemic failures, such as South Africa's high femicide rate and low rape arrest statistics, as well as Western workplace tensions where male hesitation to mentor women has increased. To address these deep-rooted issues, initiatives like the Time's Up Legal Defense Fund have provided millions in support for victims, while innovative interventions including virtual reality training and male emotional intelligence workshops aim to bridge the growing empathy gap between genders. Despite a backlash characterized by male anxiety over undefined social boundaries, the movement continues to redefine sexual harassment discourse by shifting focus from isolated incidents to broader societal power dynamics and structural inequality.

My Edited Video
This panel discussion examines the evolution of marketplace lending from a retail-focused model to one dominated by institutional capital, driven by advanced underwriting data and operational agility that bypass traditional banking constraints. Participants highlight key industry shifts, including the transition to "offer-first" application processes, the rejection of regulatory arbitrage, and the growing reliance on holistic data points rather than FICO scores to assess risk for both consumers and small businesses. With projections indicating a surge in online lending volume to $20 billion, the dialogue addresses how platforms are democratizing access while navigating regulatory complexities and competing against established banks and international markets like China.

A Matter of Degrees: How Education Enriches Us All
Ernest Wilson, Ross Duvall, Greg, Governor, Farah Doon, Udita Srimushnam, Brooke Allen, Noah
The panel "A Matter of Degrees" convened experts including Dean Ernest Wilson, economist Ross Duvall, and former Governor Gray Davis to address the widening skills gap and financial risks threatening the U.S. higher education system. Participants analyzed data showing declining U.S. educational competitiveness among younger generations and debated transformative solutions such as competency-based credentials, co-op work models, and private-public research partnerships to align academic output with market demands. The discussion concluded with a consensus that without structural reforms prioritizing transparency and employer-defined skills, the sector will fail to mitigate inequality or sustain long-term economic growth.
