22. Round IV: Exploring Industry Clusters

23. Industrial Clusters Clusters are groups of inter-related industries that drive wealth creation in a region, primarily through export of goods and services. Vertical Clusters Represents the entire value chain of a broadly defined industry from suppliers to end products. Examples: Auto manufacturing (glass, paint, engine, plastic, etc. that goes into making a car) Healthcare (service providers, equipment, medical supplies, pharmaceuticals) Horizontal Clusters Groups of similar industries that use the same resources including raw materials and/or labor Examples: Silicon Valley Wall Street Financial District Napa Valley Wine Region

24. Example of a Vertical Cluster

25. Example of a Horizontal Cluster

26. LIST OF CLUSTERS Advanced Materials Agribusiness, Food Processing & Technology Apparel & Textiles Arts, Entertainment, Recreation & Visitor Industries Biomedical/Biotechnical (Life Sciences) Business & Financial Services Chemicals Computer & Electronic Product Manufacturing Defense & Security Education & Knowledge Creation Electrical Equip, Appliance & Component Manufacturing Fabricated Metal Product Manufacturing Energy (Fossil & Renewable) Forest & Wood Products Glass & Ceramics Information Technology & Telecommunications Machinery Manufacturing Manufacturing Super-cluster Mining Primary Metal Manufacturing Printing & Publishing Transportation & Logistics Transportation Equipment Manufacturing

27. Industry Cluster Definitions Handout

28. Distribution of clusters in the Region by quadrants Industry and occupation section 05

29. 29 How to interpret cluster data results The graph’s four quadrants tell a different story for each cluster. ​ Modified from: http://www.charlestonregionaldata.com/bubble-chart-explanation /http://www.charlestonregionaldata.com/bubble-chart-explanation / Emerging Bottom right (weak but advancing) Stars Top right (strong and advancing) Mature Top left (strong but declining) Transforming Bottom left (weak and declining) Contains clusters that are more concentrated in the region and are growing. These clusters are strengths that help a community stand out from the competition. Small, high-growth clusters can be expected to become more dominant over time. Contains clusters that are more concentrated in the region but are declining (negative growth). These clusters typically fall into the lower quadrant as job losses cause a decline in concentration. Contains clusters that are under-represented in the region but are growing, often quickly. If growth trends continue, these clusters will eventually move into the top right quadrant. Clusters in this quadrant are considered emerging strengths for the region. Contains clusters that are under-represented in the region (low concentration) and are also losing jobs. Clusters in this region may indicate a gap in the workforce pipeline if local industries anticipate a future need. In general, clusters in this quadrant show a lack of competitiveness.

30. 30 Industry cluster analysis section 02 Percent Growth in Specialization Level of Specialization Mature Clusters Transportation & Logistics (1.43; 1,625) Energy (Fossil & Renewable) (1.00; 1,941) Star Clusters Mining (5.38; 572) Glass & Ceramics (3.62; 222) Agribusiness, Food Processing & Tech.

(0.20; 46) Manufacturing Supercluster(0.20; 239) NOTE: The first number after each cluster represents its location quotient while the second number represents the number of total jobs (full and part time jobs by place of work) in that cluster in the region in 2014. The clusters are sorted in decreasing order by location quotient. Note: Transportation Equipment Mfg., Machinery Mfg., Computer & Electronic Product Mfg., Primary Metal Mfg. subclusters have too few jobs. Electrical Equip, Appliance & Component Mfg. cluster does not exist in the region.

39. Now What? Based on the assets of the region and current industrial trends… What clusters should this region explore further?

40. Reality Check and Next Steps Did the data reveal: Any new opportunities that should be considered? The need to eliminate previously considered opportunities? New partners that need to be included in the planning process.

41. Actions: Begin Writing the Plan Describe and summarize the Civic Engagement Forum process and results. Summarize key strengths and challenges based on the data Describe the selected clusters: Why were these clusters selected for further exploration? What are the strengths and challenges associated with the selected clusters? Which suggested opportunities are associated with each selected cluster?
