“Innovation industries bring good jobs and high salaries to communities where they cluster
and their impact on the local economy is much deeper than their direct effect. Attracting
a scientist or software engineer triggers a multiplier effect, increasing employment and
salaries for those that provide local services. In essence, a high tech job is more than a job...
research shows for each high tech job, five additional jobs are created outside the high tech
sector.”
