 And I'm very proud to introduce our Hayek Prize ceremony. The Hayek Prize is a celebration of Friedrich Hayek, one of the most consequential thinkers of the modern era. A celebrated economist who was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1974, Hayek did more than just make intellectual breakthroughs. He inspired a generation of economic reformers who helped liberate countless millions from poverty around the world. And his message remains vitally important as we look to the future.
