Smith: Let’s make Wyoming the Creative State

Making Wyoming a leader in supporting and promoting blockchain technology is a great way to attract entrepreneurial technologists to our state to start and support new businesses. But are regulatory incentives enough to keep them here? Will their spouses and kids be excited to relocate to Wyoming? And will our UW grads with the new Blockchain Certificate stay or be lured to other states?

One sure way to attract new business and prevent youth outmigration is to grow our cultural and creative economy through innovative public stimulus investment and unique new funding strategies.

Wyoming should become “The State of Creativity.”
