Participants use pre-work survey to identify recent advances and near-term impacts

After the small-group 'celebrate' exercise, Sir Charles Parker presented what the pre-work survey had identified as the most significant advances and the meaningful economic development impacts expected over the next three years. "Here's the pre work survey identified, the meaningful economic development impact over the next 3 years," Parker said while displaying the aggregated responses.

Parker told participants that the survey results were a starting point, not a final baseline, and asked each table to select no more than three substantial developments and one or two enabling conditions to focus on. The exercise was intended to prioritize significance rather than task count and to produce items the full group could synthesize and place on the boards for further refinement.
