Paul BakerPaul Baker, the senior director of research and strategic innovation at the Center for Advanced Communications Policy, recently co-authored an article entitled “How Regions Become Innovation Hubs” for The Hill Times.
Here's an excerpt:
With an eye toward the upcoming 2019 federal election, public sector officials are looking for new approaches to improve the economic vitality of their economies, the livelihood of their citizens and, not coincidentally, their electoral prospects. Public sector efforts in Canada and the United States include: federal investments in field crop research and innovation, the Canadian Premiers’ 2015-2018 Economic Productivity and Innovation Working Group, the Federal Reserve System’s Investing in America’s Workforce program, and the U.S. National Governors Association’s Good Jobs for All Americans initiative.

The Center for Advanced Communications Policy is a unit of the Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts.
