We use the economic development implications of our theory to help metro regions build stronger high technology industrial clusters.
Our concept of clusters is a little bit different than other economic development consulting companies in the sense that we do not rely on Michael Porter's definition.
Porter relies on a concept called untraded interdependencies which has proven hard to operationalize in the form of tangible economic results.
Our approach is to examine your region's historical input-output structure and then build technology clusters upon that base.
We are especially interested in how to use your existing base of SMALL MANUFACTURING ENTERPRISES (SME) to build your future clusters.
Our theory suggests to us that your existing small manufacturing firms are the foundation of your regional economic innovation, and if they do not prosper, no one in your region will prosper.
