Opportunity Information: Apply for EDA05192010CLUSTERMAPPINGRESEARCH
The FY 2010 Cluster Mapping Research Opportunity aims to enhance understanding and support for regional innovation clusters (RICs), which are vital for fostering local economic development. RICs not only involve industries and suppliers but also focus on the networks and resources—such as research centers, universities, and venture capitalists—that drive innovation within a region.
Despite extensive academic literature on RICs, there is a gap in accessible information for practitioners responsible for promoting local economic prosperity. To address this, the Economic Development Administration (EDA) invites qualified researchers to propose projects that will:
1. Gather input from local practitioners and policymakers. 2. Create methods for identifying RICs. 3. Develop a national map of these clusters. 4. Build an interactive mapping tool. 5. Showcase successful RIC case studies. 6. Provide a toolkit for regional application. 7. Define metrics to evaluate the success of RICs. 8. Assess the project's sustainability.
This initiative seeks to provide actionable resources that can help local economic development specialists create strategies to stimulate job creation and long-term economic growth.
