Dany Bahar | The Economics of Immigration: Innovations Driven by the Immigrant Mind

David M. Rubenstein Fellow, Dany Bahar, from Brookings Institution, joins Immigration Nerds.

How do you quantify the economic value of cultural knowledge? The ability to share one's unique know-how within the marketplace which ultimately leads to new innovations. How would you collect this hand full of intangibles and somehow alchemize it into numbers, graphs, and powerpoints? Dany is tackling just that. Through his studies and research, we discuss the more implicit factors of how migrants contribute to economic growth in a nation.
