After record-setting spending to keep the economy from the brink of collapse, the public has grown wary, even hostile, to the idea of more government pump priming. Even those who advocate additional public investment face daunting budget constraints. Does this mean that government is hamstrung when it comes to spurring innovation? Not at all. In this report, Robert Atkinson and other authors lay out a nine key ways to keep innovation going even if funds are limited. They include regulations to encourage rather than inhibit innovation, smarter tax policies, procurement reform, better use of technology to drive innovation and more. Report authors: Robert D. Atkinson, Daniel Castro, Scott M. Andes, Stephen Ezell, Darrene Hackler and Richard Bennett.
