Selecting “critical industries”

• What criteria to use?

• What relative importance or weight should be given to different criteria?

• When we use selected criteria what industries rise to the top?

Page 11: Page 1 Recent Economic Trends in Massachusetts: Which are critical industries? Navjeet Singh Vice President, Research and Evaluation 617-727-8158 Nsingh@commcorp.org

What criteria to use?

• What criteria can we use to select critical industries?

• Some options, rank your top five choices:– in which Massachusetts is strong (strong meaning?)– In which employment is high (how high?)– in which there has been long-term or short-term

growth– which pay well– which have entry level jobs with growth opportunities– have a lot of vacancies– are projected to grow
