The innovation engine that powered the U.S. economy to unmatched
prosperity over the last century is now failing, threatening the
way we work and live. As the nation spins its wheels--reeling from
the job losses of the recession and seemingly unable to generate
the breakthroughs needed to propel alternative energy, medicine,
and other critical fields--Europe and especially Asia have begun to
capture the leadership of crucial new technology sectors.
How can America revitalize its innovation leadership and kick-start
the economy again?
In Great Again, veteran high-tech CEO Henry Nothhaft takes us
inside the heart of America''s innovation community to surface a new
proposal for the job creation and economic growth we need. Bringing
to life the human drama of the exhilarating, demanding and often
frustrating startup environment, Nothhaft offers this complex world
as the setting for a promising solution to the country''s current
standstill.
Nothhaft, with journalist David Kline, says a breakthrough can be
achieved through a series of practical and achievable tax,
regulatory and other reforms that would help strengthen
entrepreneurial startup businesses--and offer the necessary fuel
for an American resurgence. They key is to bolster the segment and
lessen the startup''s struggle against a perfect storm of "red tape"
burdens. In fact, this entrepreneurial ecosystem may be the only
force in society that can create revolutionary innovations that
would lead to new industries and millions of new jobs--generating
prosperity again for all citizens.
Great Again provides fresh research and original analysis to offer
an entirely new lens for recovery. Filled with evocative stories
and surprising evidence of the crucial role of the innovative force
in society, the book presents an action plan that both
entrepreneurs and policymakers can rally behind.
