Jackson Hole Summit

Jackson Hole Summit was a conference on economic policy held from August 27–29, 2015, in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to advocate for hard money monetary policies and an end to government involvement in the money supply. The summit aimed to be a conservative, hard money counterpoint to the annual Economic Policy Symposium at Jackson Hole sponsored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City. The summit was funded through a nonprofit group called the American Principles Project. According to associates of hedge fund CEO Robert Mercer interviewed by Bloomberg, Mercer was the main financial backer of the Jackson Hole Summit.
