Lessons from Ray Dalio – the long-term economic impact of COVID-19

The conversations have been fascinating. A wide range of topics with leading thinkers who are being called upon to share insights and ideas that will help us navigate this challenging time.

One of the interviews over the past week featured Ray Dalio who is Co-Chief Investment Officer & Co-Chairman of Bridgewater Associates, L.P. Ray shared views about the long-term economic impact of COVID-19.

TED Talks open our minds, spark new ways of thinking and can lead to some very interesting conversations. In the spirit of connection and learning from others we launched our own TED Circles in March 2020.

TED Circles is an open platform of small groups that engage in conversations about ideas.

The theme for the TED Circles get together in April is “A changing world”. We will showcase one talk linked to the theme and another talk that is linked to the current COVID-19 situation which is challenging the globe.

We are hosting on second get together on the 15th of April 2020, it’s free and we would love for you to join us.

We can learn so much from the world around us and from starting conversation with others. If you have watched a TED Talk recently, share it on social media and tag CN&CO. Let’s share in conversations and ideas while being physically distant.
