George Bogden

“The Steamboat Institute prepared me for work that always integrates intervention in public debates, whether in government or the private sector. The experiences I gained as a Blankley Fellow sharpened my ability to bring principled ideas into the public square and to translate them into action. For that, I remain profoundly grateful.”
