Abstract:
In 2001, the Portland Development Commission (PDC) was asked by the Mayor of Portland to create a new economic development strategy for the City of Portland. Through a process of research, analysis, consultation and debate, a new economic development strategy emerged. A central theme of this strategy was the analysis and promotion of a number of "Targeted industries." ... The industries chosen for targeted economic development activity are: Activewear and Outdoor Gear; Biosciences; Creative Services; Distribution and Logistics; Food Processing; High Tech; Metals and Transportation Equipment; Professional services; and Sustainable Industries.Within the compiled Target Industry Plan, data and analysis are reported on an annual industry-by-industry basis.
