Vision 2025 adopts the premise that the surest path to global success for Kansas as a state is the path that strives to continually improve the local business operating environments among the communities of Kansas.

Our state has invested significantly in its roads and highways. The private sector has benefited. But technology changes driving our country’s economy go beyond the traditional infrastructure thinking. For the changing – and new economies that are exploding across the country and around the world, Kansas must take bold action and ensure its digital infrastructure is cutting edge while maintaining its low cost utilities and protecting its natural resources. We must implement solutions to improve logistics for domestic and international trade capacity and seize upon new and growing industry opportunities such as artificial intelligence, biosecurity and animal sciences.
