Council on Competitiveness president & CEO Deborah Wince-Smith appeared on CNBC to discuss the 2nd US-Brazil Innovation Summit, hosted today at Georgetown University.
Wince-Smith said that the U.S. must "ensure that we not only invent the next generation of products and services, but that build them here in the United States and take them out globally."
Brazil has become a global leader in innovation by intergrating universities and industry to promote new technologies.
