Deep Competitiveness: new Issues in Science and Technology article

In the current issue of the National Academy of Sciences’ Issues in Science and Technology, ITIF President Rob Atkinson argues that current proposals to stimulate U.S. competitiveness are necessary but not sufficient to meet the challenges posed by a rapidly evolving global economy and the aggressive policies of other nations.

He makes a number of specific policy proposals, organized into four areas:

1) work to create a global trade regime based on markets, not mercantilism;

2) overhaul the corporate tax code to spur innovation;

3) create new research partnerships; and

4) make digital transformation of the economy within 10 years a national goal.
