Innovation is the Key to Valley SuccessInnovation is the Key to Valley Success
Innovation is the key to success in today’s global economy across all industries
Continuous reinvention is required to keep pace with the rapid pace of change.
The basis of increasing productivity is innovation not competing on cost
Productivity is the basis for prosperity.

Preparing for the Next Waves: State and Regional ResponsesPreparing for the Next Waves: State and Regional Responses
Do leaders understand the opportunity?
What must we do to ensure it happens here?
What are the requirements?
How can local people and communities benefit?
Can we avoid some of the pitfalls of past waves?
21
Key PointsKey Points
The recent bubble has broken, so let's learn and move on.
Goal: sustain habitat advantages in productivity and innovation.
We can anticipate a next wave: a new convergence building on prior waves
Silicon Valley is well-positioned, but there is no permanent franchise.
Must work together to ensure that next wave happens here, works for us.
