I woke up pondering the question, why is our state’s innovation ecosystem itself, so hard to innovate?

I was recently visiting one of the offices I used to work in before the pandemic – it’s like I never left – the same now thread bare stories, without any real progress.

I like to be a glass-half-full guy, but I know I spend a lot of energy worried about the other half and my concern about our next generation’s potential and ‘What’s Next, Alaska?’

Then in morning news from the CNBC’s annual America’s Top States for Business study, this:

With a large margin from #2.

Read the summary of the “top 10”.
