Gary Shapiro Tells Us About The New Declaration of Innovation: Why the Consumer Electronics Association Wants Every American to Sign It!
Historically, good old-fashioned American innovation has been responsible for everything from the airplane to the telephone to eBay and Facebook. Innovative use of spectrum, or airwaves, has enabled everything from garage door openers and baby monitors to Tablets and SmartPhones. But, today’s public policies are doing little to support innovation in America – and we are facing a “spectrum crunch” that stifles future wireless broadband innovations, too. The best way to secure America’s economic future is to rediscover its INNOVATIVE past. In anticipation of the upcoming July 4th holiday, CEA’s Innovation Movement is asking all Americans to sign the Declaration of Innovation to help ensure that YOUR CITY (and the U.S. overall) has the technological bandwidth it needs to stay connected; that our nation has the policies in place to remain competitive; and that our children have the tools to compete in a global marketplace.
Gary Shapiro, author of the New York Times Bestseller “The Comeback: How Innovation Will Restore the American Dream” and president and CEO of the Consumer Electronics Association, will tell you the key priorities of CEA’s Innovation Movement that, if enacted by Congress, will reverse America’s decline and restore the American Dream … and Gary will challenge us all to sign the Declaration of Innovation.
