Description

Gina Raimondo
40th U.S. Secretary of Commerce 

Friday, December 4, 2026 at 12:00 pm

Thanks to our partnership with The Washington Speakers Bureau, the Forum Club of the Palm Beaches will present Gina Raimondo on Friday, December 4, 2026 at Noon at the Kravis Center for the Performing Arts.

Gina M. Raimondo is the Co-Chair & CEO of RAISE US - a national, nonpartisan organization partnering with states, employers, training partners, and workers to help Americans make a successful transition to an AI economy.

Previously, she served as the 40th U.S. Secretary of Commerce. As Secretary, Raimondo focused on making America more competitive by driving job creation, fostering innovation, and strengthening national security. Under her leadership, the Department of Commerce made historic investments in Internet access, manufacturing, workforce training, and climate readiness through initiatives like the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the CHIPS Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act.

Raimondo oversaw $39 billion in incentives for chip manufacturing, $40 billion in broadband grants, and significant investments in climate resilience and minority business support. She also led efforts on AI development, launching the U.S. AI Safety Institute and establishing the international network of AI Safety Institutes. She has been recognized as one of TIME's Most Influential People and is known for her role in advancing national security through technology and international cooperation.

Prior to becoming Secretary, Raimondo served as the 75th Governor of Rhode Island, where she focused on economic development, infrastructure, and education. Under her leadership, Rhode Island became the first state to offer tuition-free community college for all high school graduates. She also served as Chair of the Democratic Governors Association, significantly boosting fundraising and strategic efforts.

Earlier in her career, Raimondo served as Rhode Island's General Treasurer, where she restructured the state’s pension system to avoid a financial crisis. She is a graduate of Harvard, Oxford (Rhodes Scholar), and Yale Law School. Raimondo is married to Andy Moffit, and they have two children.
