JobsOhio has been strengthening Ohio’s competitiveness through AI—both internally, by deploying innovative proprietary AI solutions, and externally, by building a thriving AI ecosystem across the state. We continue to build the full ecosystem AI companies need to grow: power, compute capacity, a skilled talent pipeline, fast-moving business climate, and a central Midwest location. This session breaks down JobsOhio's strategy for establishing Ohio as an AI Super Sector, showing how these four pillars come together into one coordinated play for AI investment. Attendees will hear how Ohio defines "AI Ready" in practice, the benchmarks it tracks, the partnerships driving progress, and what other states can learn from its approach.
