National Innovation Summit 2001: Proposal to the National Science Foundation

该奖项将为2001年4月5日至6日在加州大学圣地亚哥分校举行的第二届全国创新峰会提供部分支持。峰会将为150多名公共和私营部门领导人提供论坛，讨论与国家经济竞争力和技术创新有关的问题。议程的核心部分突出了NSF的研究和教育目标，包括赢得技能竞赛，保持美国在发现和研究前沿的领导地位，以及加强区域创新能力。在这些领域中，领导人将定义战略挑战，用政策研究阐明这些挑战，并制定广泛支持的政策建议，以促进国家利益。因此，首脑会议将提高人们对全球经济中创新与竞争力之间密切联系的认识。

The Summit will serve as a forum for over 150 public and private sector leaders to discuss issues pertinent to the nation's economic competitiveness and technological innovation. The core components of the agenda, which highlight NSF's research and education goals, include winning the skills race, sustaining American leadership at the frontiers of discovery and research, and strengthening regional innovation capabilities. In each of these areas, leaders will define strategic challenges, illuminate them with policy research, and develop broadly supported policy recommendations advancing the national interest. Consequently the Summit will raise awareness of the close connection between innovation and competitiveness in the global economy.
