Obama Unveils Innovation Policy

On Monday, President Obama gave a major policy speech announcing his official innovation policy. Countless folks I’ve talked to across Silicon Valley have been urging him to lay out his agenda and address head-on his plans for one of the most important sectors of the American economy.

From the coverage I’ve read, it seems like the speech and policy pulled together a number of threads already articulated as well as rolling in some money already earmarked through the stimulus spending. Here’s a handful of links to stories I read today.

So what do you think? Are you seeing anything new or different here? Any obvious missteps or moments of genius? Let me know your thoughts below.
