Entrepreneurship

Dream it.  Do it.                           

"Entrepreneurs and researchers and innovators want to be around each other. They want to feed off the shared creative energy. They want access to a shared talent pool. They want to build relationships. So if a local community is able to plant that seed - if it's able to create the climate for innovation and build a critical mass - then private investment will follow. Innovation will follow. Jobs will follow." 

John Fernandez, Asst. Sec. of Commerce for Economic Development
