How state, business, schools work together
Abstract:
Through Skip Schoenhals, Valerie Woodruff, the Rodel Foundation and the Vision 2015 Steering Committee, this program is well on its way to becoming a reality. The second major platform of the Roundtable is to foster a more entrepreneurial economy in Delaware. This platform is being driven by an exciting new 501(c)(3) called First State Innovation.
First State Innovation will seek to act as a catalyst to bring the puzzle pieces together so that Delaware becomes a "hot-bed" of entrepreneurial activity in areas like biotech, advanced materials, information technology, nanotechnology, financial services, and the supporting infrastructure.
The FSI Board was selected with this goal in mind. Comprised of the current governor, a former governor, seven large corporation's CEOs, seven entrepreneurial CEOs, a few venture capitalists, three university presidents and the CEO of the Delaware Technology Park, the board represents many different views enabling FSI to be a strong, successful organization.
