Description

In this report, the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) identifies and analyzes the employment impact of investments in three IT infrastructure projects that (1) contribute to significant immediate direct and indirect job growth in our economy; (2) create a "network effect" throughout the economy that, in some cases, doubles the number of directly created jobs; and (3) provide a foundation for longer term benefits, including government cost savings, economy-wide productivity, and improved quality of life for Americans. The three IT infrastructure projects are broadband networks, health IT, and the smart power grid.
