Gundersen's three-legged stool represents his upstate strategy.

There's the first leg -- preparing upstate New York to compete in what Gundersen calls the "innovation economy." He cited BAE Systems' announcement in April that it will add 125 jobs at its Johnson City facility, where it already employs 1,300, as an example of creating "the jobs of the innovation economy."

For those I-Hubbers that aren't following Spitzer; Gundersen is upstate NY's chairman of the Empire State Development Corp.

Interesting that he is so taken with BAE Systems' announcement to MOVE jobs to New York. Little does he know that moving jobs is easier than creating jobs.

I wonder what he would do of they actually created a new job.

I got an idea..... Let's introduce him to Torvec's plans. There would be some new jobs for NYS in those plans.

It seems to me that so far, his work has accomplished the renaming of the program he is working on from "Restore NY" to "Renew NY". Boy that is real good work Gundersen..... Nice "JOB".

Well, he did create a job.... his own.

Here is the link to what BAE is doing in NYS with those relocated jobs.
