A few weeks ago, Bill liveblogged from the second meeting of the International Regions Benchmarking Consortium that took place in Barcelona...
It feels sometimes like we’ve been talking about a “second stimulus package” pretty much as soon as the first one passed (almost exactly nine months ago!). Cer...
OK, maybe that’s not the best slogan for a new STEM initiative marketing campaign. I’ll leave that up to the experts. But a marketing campaign is exactly what the Obama Administration is talking about with its new Educate to Innovate campaign. An...

It might surprise many in this region to know that the Defense industry sector of military installations, has been an unqualified growth sector. Can you name one job site that has gained 13,000 jobs since 2004? If you’re having trouble naming just one, here it is: Fort Lewis. ...
So Boeing’s opening a second line in South Carolina. Inevitably, fingers will be pointed. But at whom? ...
Apologies to those of you who have seen this list in past years, but this is the first time I’ve seen Slate’s 80 over 80 list. First off, it’s a pretty hilarious spin on the standard 40 Under 40 that we see in places like our own Puget Sound Business Journal. Second: Barbara Walters is 80! (Cli...
