5. Economic Impact > Investment & Jobs
A $600m State investment in has generated over $10bn in private investment since then, creating 6,200 jobs
Investment impact:
Total private investment into Albany Nanotech for the period is $3.4bn, which has been supplemented by $800m in State funding
Investment in the wider Albany region in the same period has been over $9bn, of which $7bn has come from non-government sources
Employment impact:
Currently, 1,800 people work in Albany Nanotech’s 17 different centers – this is expected to increase to 2,500 in 2009
Investment in the wider Albany economy between 2001 and 2009 is estimated to create over 4,400 jobs
Economic impact:
The $10bn private sector investment in nanotech in the Albany region is likely to have a total economic impact of closer to $30bn, through multiplier effects
With hi-tech wages averaging $81,000 in 2006, and assuming employment grows again in 2010, the hi-tech wage bill in 2010 may reach over $1bn |
