CTC's 2011 Public Policy Agenda

‎The Public Policy Agenda of the Tech Council featured government objectives and strategies needed to build high quality jobs and a sustained growth environment in Connecticut. Please read - and comment on facebook or on the blog post.

Take Action!

The terms technology and non-technology are less meaningful today than they were five years ago.

Today what matters most isn't whether companies create or use technology, but how they apply innovation to compete -- innovation in new product ideation, research, growth strategy, and manufacturing.

Globalization and the rapid pace of discovery have changed the rules.

Right now, the Council sees a window of opportunity for Connecticut to position itself as a place where innovation thrives

-- a place where support for new ideas, technology transfer, collaboration, risk capital, spinoffs and inventions flourish.

But we're not alone.

Every State in the country is pursuing sustainable economic growth policies, and many countries offer lower cost labor and other operational efficiencies compared to Connecticut.

It will require grassroots leadership, coordination, and political determination for Connecticut to become a place where innovation truly thrives.

Over the next several months, the Council's public policy goal is to create a bold strategic plan and constituency of leaders that will build a vibrant culture of innovation in Connecticut. This long term vision will become reality through grassroots leadership and collective action.

The Connecticut Growth Network is the beginning of this initiative to create a bold strategic growth plan. From these programs, our community will fashion a progressive policy agenda to position Connecticut at the forefront of international research, discovery, and commercialization of new ideas.
