The approval of Proposition 301 by Arizona voters in November2000 was a significant step toward a new foundation for the state's economicfuture by providing a long-term funding stream for science and technologyinvestments. This new sales tax enabled the state to create an economicdevelopment strategy appropriate for the knowledge economy. This studyevaluated the economic potential of Proposition 301 at Arizona StateUniversity and developed a model for assessing its long-term value. The newparadigm for assessment of long-term economic impact, called "CAT," will keepscore on science and technology research through study of Connections betweenuniversity researchers and businesses, Attention generated by universityresearch, and Talent recruited, retained, and developed. The first-yearProposition 301-funded programs provided many illustrations of how CATmeasures can be applied in the future to analyze the value of science andtechnology research, and some examples are described. In the future,Proposition 301 research activities are likely to converge in even larger,more interdisciplinary collaboration to draw together research teams frommany fields. These teams will be essential for the next generation of scienceand technology innovation. (Contains 42 references.) (SLD)
