Nexus Companies and a Reimagined US Economy

The US and developed world need faster and more productive economic growth and already have some pieces to build on in the emergence of what I call the Nexus ecosystem of companies. A realistic and innovative way to get there by encouraging trends already underway and more reaches through a deep dive into a business innovation cycle already underway. With a brief discussion of past innovation cycles and how this one may compare. Included is a significant look at how to address some systemic challenges from under investment in infrastructure to inflation pressures. This is not your typical let’s just throw money blindly at infrastructure and other things type doctrine it’s much more robust and innovative than that. It looks at how to broadly accomplish quite a bit of the goals by enhancing some already emergent trends and business structures. The root of this is looking at emerging company types in the US that are innovating business structures themselves. These companies we will call Nexus companies which act like economic hubs help connect people, companies, governments, and more. Increasing the efficiency of product and service acquisition by companies. Helping businesses not only find workers but defraying some of the cost of peripheral issues as well as upgrading their skillset in the process. Equally important in addressing here is giving workers/contractors greater agency as well to find the most prosperous options and best fits for their skills. The emergent Nexus companies will bolster management on numerous levels along with economic growth and dynamism. While also undertaking initiatives supporting Infrastructure and making it more attractive for private capital and investment including though reimagined public/private structures. One we will call a Special Infrastructure Investment Vehicle which can not only enable more public/private partnerships and making infrastructure more attractive to private capital investment. Governments can leverage this tool for immediate capital in distress situations as well. It gives the ability to target specific areas of infrastructure. From wastewater disposal. Producing more potable water from various sources including desalinization and other venues. Plus, pipelines to transport water. Transportation including roads, bridges/tunnels, trains, airports, etc. Networks and data centers. Along with much more. Discussing another layer with policy and information sharing to boost education, including new structures for employment contracts encouraging upgraded skillsets for workers and making training/education more accessible. Including additions of tradeable credits and other mechanisms to boost skill acquisition for workers. This also segways into how these fit into the Nexus ecosystem and the twos synergies. AI and emergent technologies are discussed in detail and how they can play integral roles with these companies and vice versa. While looking at how to direct policies that help AI and these companies achieve the best scenarios for workers, consumers, and companies. There is a quick hit set of policy ideas to tie these elements together and encourage a next generation economy to emerge that will inspire another wave of US and world economic prosperity. This is a great blueprint and opportunity to make the economy and innovation trends work for the people vs the people being a prisoner to trends.
