Welcoming immigrant innovators, investors, entrepreneurs

 

"Innovation requires talented people with good ideas and a solid support network. If we want more innovation that will create more jobs, we need to do a better job of welcoming the world's brightest and most inventive people and ensuring that they have a chance, if desired, to put their skills and ambitions to work in our economy.  As we continue to cultivate the next homegrown Steve Jobs or Bill Gates, we should also keep in mind that the next Albert Einstein, Jonas Salk, Andrew Grove or Sergey Brin could be right under our nose." - Marshall Fitz & John Halpin, Nov. 11, 2011.
