Have you listened to our last #shiftdisturbers episode? MPI staff members past and present offer highlights from their time working here & offer what they believe will hopefully be the Institute’s lasting legacy. https://t.co/UydB00YSd2 @rotmanschool

#shiftdisturbers @MazzucatoM @RotmanEvents @rotmanschool #ValueofEverything

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

What to do? Value needs to be collectively produced. @MazzucatoM @RotmanEvents #shiftdisturbers #ValueofEverything

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

The government doesn’t even know how to assess the output and productivity of their institutions. @MazzucatoM #shiftdisturbers #ValueofEverything @RotmanEvents

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

Value really matters especiallywhen it comes to gdp, governance of orgs, pricing of medicines, digital/platform capitalism, role of the state @MazzucatoM @rotmanschool @RotmanEvents #valueofeverything #shiftdisturbers

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

Instead of going from value to price we go from price to value. @MazzucatoM @rotmanschool @RotmanEvents #valueofeverything #shiftdisturbers

[Jim Stanford @JimboStanford]

The state doesn't just redistribute value, the public sector produces it--in large amounts. And the so-called "value" registered & traded in financial markets is not actually valuable. Well put by @MazzucatoM at @MartinProsperiT event on #ValueofEverything @rotmanschool

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

History of where value comes from 1600s: trade, 1700s: farming, 1800: labour, 1900s/now: preferences @rotmanschool @RotmanEvents #valueofeverything #shiftdisturbers

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

Who is productive? Who creates value? The way we measure productivity and value is part of the problem. #shiftdisturbers #ValueofEverything @MazzucatoM @RotmanEvents

“Current investment in green energy is only about 20% of what it should be.” — @MazzucatoM, author of #ValueofEverything. I’m going back to school today @rotmanschool @MartinProsperiT #shiftdisturbers

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

Taking vs. Making. Let’s make the discussion more radical and address what productivity is. #shiftdisturbers #valueofeverything @MazzucatoM @RotmanEvents

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

@MazzucatoM says: What’s gone wrong? Let’s debate what value is. @rotmanschool @RotmanEvents #valueofeverything

[Martin Prosperity @MartinProsperiT]

Our last #shiftdisturbers event is about to start with @MazzucatoM on the #valueofeverything

“Every day we find evidence that economic efficiency, which has traditionally underpinned democratic capitalism, is failing to distribute the concomitant gains.” @RogerLMartin from Rethinking Efficiency in January-February 2019 Issue of @HarvardBiz https://t.co/Ue6egOVhj5

“Global venture investment is highly uneven and spiky — it is concentrated in a small number of large cities and metros around the world.” Read Rise of the Global Startup City by @Richard_Florida and Karen M. King https://t.co/nXhHebatk1 @rotmanschool

“I have a model that addresses one of the world’s most complex problems today. I believe we need to fundamentally change finance and business and its approach to labour.” @RogerLMartin in @nantucketproj https://t.co/139slGzRdD @rotmanschool
