Abstract

Public-private partnerships involving state and federal government are increasingly used to catalyze private investments in research and innovation. The two levels of government must consult more broadly in forming national science and technology policy. The State-Federal Technology Partnership, an ad hoc initiative of present and former governors, university presidents, corporate chief executives, and former federal research and development leaders, has studied these possibilities in several reports. Its recommendations underlie an unprecedented agreement between the White House and the National Governors' Association to launch a new U.S. Innovation Partnership for joint use of science and technology to generate economic growth, improve education and health care, and protect the environment. This article reviews the basis of state and federal science and technology cooperation and demonstrates the problems inherent in Professor Feller's critique in this issue of Economic Development Quarterly.
