Pennsylvania’s ‘Innovate in PA 2.0’ takes cues from Pittsburgh’s science and tech economy

The Innovate in PA 2.0 program aims to close the gap between invention and commercialization using $125 million provided in the recent state budget. The initiative supports companies like Carnegie Foundry, which created VoxEQ, a voice analysis tool used by banks to protect against impersonation attempts. Department of Economic and Community Development Secretary Rick Siger emphasized that this effort will strengthen Pennsylvania's competitive position amidst rapid technological change.
