In last night’s State of the Union Address, the president strongly emphasized America’s need for innovation in order to “win the future.” His speech, not surprisingly, focused largely on the improvement of the economy. He challenged Americans to hone their creativity to achieve the innovation that will keep our country competitive in global markets and continue on the path to economic recovery. Obama’s support has struck a pleasant chord with the business and technology communities.
What does the president’s encouragement of innovation mean for the technology industry? Obama praised the tech industry for creating American jobs and gave a nod to successes of Google and Facebook. Obama proposed increasing investments in education, making high-speed, wireless internet more readily available to more citizens, and improving clean-energy initiatives. These proposals mean more government money going directly to the research and development of new innovative technologies, particularly clean technology and information technology.
As Obama illustrated, America has a history of bright minds and great progress. By investing in young thinkers and new technology, the government can help increase the American contribution to the digital revolution, which continuously improves citizens’ lifestyles with each innovation. Obama plans to send a budget outlining the proposed investments to Congress in the coming weeks. It will be interesting to observe over the next legislative year how his proposals are addressed and developed in Washington and the impact they have on tech policies and businesses.

I agree that innovation is a key to our continued competitive advantage. I just hope Obama can get congress moving on energizing our educational system. It just seems to continually slip behind the rest of the world.

I'm hoping that economic recovery will include a boost in business for those trying to pursue the American dream of succeeding in a small enterprise!

Our most important investment is the education of our youngest generation coming up. Other countries get it and it's imperative for us to get it if we want to maintain our influence in the world.

With the fast-paced changes in the world and workforce, it's up to the individual to keep up with them and to live the entrepreneurial spirit that made this country great.

I have to say that Im really unimpressed with this. I mean, sure, youve got some very interesting points. But this blog is just really lacking in something. Maybe its content, maybe its just the design. I dont know. But its almost like you wrote this because everybodys doing it. No passion at all.

Exam pressures frequently lead to suicides. According to a survey last year among senior secondary-school students and university freshmen in one area, more than 50% had considered killing themselves.

China's traditional education methods are ideally suited to a political culture that requires citizens to submit blindly to authority. By encouraging students to question their teachers and regard them as equals (even official literature now talks of fostering a “democratic” atmosphere in classrooms), China could be ushering in a new kind of relationship between the rulers and the ruled
