After decades of uncontested global dominance, the United States is now at risk of falling behind emerging powerhouse nations such as China and India. If we don't move fast to improve our education system, boost research funding and fix overly restrictive immigration laws, the U.S. will soon lose its place as the world's biggest and most inventive economy. The American public is keenly aware of the gap in math and science education, and recognizes the need to address it to compete internationally. AeA is mobilizing its nationwide grassroots organization to communicate the urgency of these issues to the American people. If we do not confront five factors affecting our competitiveness, not only will the U.S. tech industry suffer, but also parents, educators, and most importantly our children.
The New Jersey-Pennsylvania Council in incorporation with the New Jersey Chamber have designed this program to draw together High-Tech Executives and Government leaders for a dialogue to stimulate political leaders to take action. Speakers: Joan Verplanck
