In late-April, under the auspices of the National Commission on Innovation & Competitiveness Frontiers, the Council launched its “Competitiveness Conversations Across America” series in Nashville, Tennessee. The event was thought-provoking and insightful, and it made us even more optimistic about Tennessee and our country. Following the success in Tennessee, May has seen the Council prepare for our Conversations in the Mountain West and the Midwest.
