With my friend Gov. Gretchen Whitmer

Here with Gretchen Whitmer, Governor of Michigan, came over to Minnesota and she's an incredible leader and we know the future is going to be innovation for both Minnesota and Michigan. That means updating old systems that are in place when it comes to technology and training our workers on the technology of today. That's why I have suggested that we start an innovation hub in Minnesota that's a way of bringing together our businesses and our schools and our workers so everyone is trained on the top technology. It shouldn't just be the private sector that has it but we want to make sure that Minnesota students can get the best jobs possible and that means technology training. No question and again I think that it's really important as we think about success in a successful economy is defined by the success of the individuals in the economy and it's driven by business, it's driven by government. We all have to be working together in order to realize the potential that's here but I think especially here in the midwest we are not afraid to work hard. We know how to get things done and there are so many advancements that are having that need to upscale and it's going to be happening right here but we got to be ready for it with upgraded systems, a culture of innovation and partnerships across a variety of stakeholders. I agree.
