(
Robert Davis) – Nevada Gov. Steve Sisolak unveiled a legislative proposal Friday that would allow tech companies to create their own government entities within the state.
“We want to grow our economy beyond casinos and gaming,” Sisolak said. “Great strides have been made in recent years, but too many Nevadans still find themselves vulnerable during economic downturns.”
Known as “innovation zones,” the governor’s office described the proposal as an “opportunity for companies who commit to a significant investment into Nevada the ability to develop new industries in the state centered around groundbreaking technologies.” The zones would be accessible by industries such as renewable energy, blockchain, robotics, artificial intelligence, and wireless technology.
