Tech CEOs Lay Out Plan For U.S. To Compete In Global Economy

CEOs from leading U.S. technology companies have unveiled a comprehensive report outlining a strategy for U.S. competitiveness for the 21st Century. As the nation heads into the important 2008 election cycle, the report calls on policymakers to embrace a positive, action-oriented agenda that leverages U.S. strengths to compete in the increasingly global marketplace.

The report, titled, "A Great Nation: How Americans Can Lead and Prosper in a Changing World," was released by the Technology CEO Council, a CEO policy advocacy group focused on ensuring U.S. competitiveness through technology leadership.

"The United States has been an economic and world leader for over acentury because of its willingness to confront challenges and leverage thestrengths of its dynamic economy," said Ed Zander, Chairman and CEO ofMotorola, Inc. and TCC chairman. "As we enter a critical debate about the future direction of our country, it's critical that we take the necessary steps to ensure our economy remains innovative and dynamic."

"Our economic future is intrinsically tied to the global economy. We can either embrace that and prosper or shirk from it and lose our economicedge. Americans want to know that as a nation we have a plan to flourish and prosper. TCC has laid out a positive agenda that sets a clear framework for U.S. competitiveness," says Paul Otellini, president and CEO, Intel.
