It’s an essential insight about our world: Innovation drives economic growth. For the U.S. to thrive, it must keep innovating. But how, and in what areas? A new book co-authored by MIT faculty members focuses on key areas where technology advances can drive the economy and support national security. Semiconductors, biotechnology, drones, quantum computing, and advanced manufacturing — are all built on U.S. know-how, but these are also areas where the country could be falling behind.

The Texas Semiconductor Innovation Consortium's executive committee is made up of state and international leaders in science, technology and engineering who joined Abbott and other state leaders at the University of Texas at Dallas Tuesday.
