Innovation Ecosystems & Institutional Trust
The strength of American innovation lies in its ecosystem—fueled by academic freedom, entrepreneurial risk-taking, and public trust. Attacks on higher education, declining investment, and political polarization risk fracturing this foundation. The U.S. must safeguard the institutions and norms that support open inquiry, diverse thought, and science-based progress.
Innovation thrives where ideas are free, facts matter, and institutions are trusted.
