What is Competitiveness?

• Competitiveness is the productivity with which a state utilizes its human, capital, and natural endowments to create value

• Productivity determines wages, jobs, and the standard of living

• It is not what fields a state competes in that determines its prosperity, but how productively it competes

Where Does Productivity Come From?

Businesses and government play different but interrelated roles in creating a productive economy

• Only businesses can create jobs and wealth

• States compete to offer the most productive environment for business

– Early demand for products and

services

Rules and incentives that encourage

local competition, investment and

– Scientific and technological

infrastructure

Local availability of suppliers and

supporting industries

• Many things matter for competitiveness

• Economic development is the process of improving the business environment to enable companies to compete in increasingly sophisticated ways

What is a Cluster?

A geographically concentrated group of interconnected

companies and associated institutions in a particular field

Traded Clusters

• Compete to serve national

and international markets

• Can locate anywhere

• 30% of employment

Local Clusters

• Serve almost exclusively

the local market

• Not directly exposed to

cross-regional competition

• 70% of employment

Strong Clusters Drive Regional Performace

Source: Porter/Stern/Delgado (2010), Porter (2003)

• Specialization in strong clusters

• Breadth of industries within each

cluster

• Strength in related clusters

• Presence of a region’s clusters in

neighboring regions

• Job growth

• Higher wages

• Higher patenting rates

• Greater new business

formation, growth and survival

On average, cluster strength is much more important (78.1%) than cluster mix

(21.9%) in driving regional performance in the U.S.

(21.9%) in driving regional performance in the U.S.

Cluster Development

Common Action Items

Source: Porter/Stern/Delgado (2010), Porter (2003)

1. Build on the state’s existing and emerging clusters rather than chase

“hot” fields

2. Pursue economic diversification within clusters and across related

clusters

3. Create a private sector-led cluster upgrading program with matching

support for participating private sector cluster organizations

• Government should listen and remove obstacles to cluster

improvement

4. Align other state economic policies and programs with clusters

Define the Value Proposition

Create an Economic Strategy

Develop Unique Strengths Achieve and Maintain

Parity with Peers

• What elements of the business

environment can be unique strengths

relative to peers/neighbors?

• What existing and emerging clusters

represent local strengths?

• What weaknesses must be addressed to

remove key constraints and achieve

parity with peer locations?

• What is the distinctive competitive position of the state or

region given its location, legacy, existing strengths, and

potential strengths? – What unique value as a business location?

– For what types of activities and clusters?

• Economic strategy requires setting priorities and moving beyond long lists of

separate recommendations.

How Should States Compete for Investment?

Tactical

(Zero Sum

Competition)

Strategic

(Positive Sum

Competition)

• Focus on attracting new investments

• Compete for every plant

• Offer generalized tax breaks

• Provide subsidies to lower / offset

business costs

• Every city and sub-region for itself

• Government drives investment

attraction

• Also support greater local investment

by existing companies

• Reinforce areas of specialization

and emerging cluster strength

• Provide state support for training,

infrastructure, and institutions with

enduring benefits

• Improve the efficiency of doing

business

• Harness efficiencies and

coordination across jurisdictions,

especially with neighbors

• Government and the private sector

collaborate to build cluster strength

Harnessing the New Process of Economic Development

Old Model

• Government drives economic

development through policy

decisions and incentives

New Model

• Economic development is a

collaborative process involving

government at multiple levels,

companies, teaching and research

institutions, and private sector

organizations

Competitiveness is the result of both top-down and bottom-up processes

in which many companies and institutions take responsibility

Summary

• The goal of economic strategy is to enhance productivity. This is the only

way to create jobs, high income, and wealth in the long run

• Improving productivity and innovation must be the guiding principles for

every state policy choice

• Improving productivity does not require new public resources, but using

existing resources better

• Improving productivity demands that governors mobilize the private

sector, not rely on government alone

• Economic strategy is non-partisan and about getting results

Next Steps

1. Reach out to your team

2. Reach out to the business community

3. Take advantage of Harvard Business School data and tools to support

this effort. Go to www.isc.hbs.edu.

The prosperity of the U.S. economy will depend more on the success of

states in improving competitiveness than what happens in Washington
