Why is Economic Development Important?
Economic development is vital for economic growth in an economy. It promotes high-wage employment and facilitates a better quality of life.
While the role of economic developers is frequently overlooked, producing and sustaining jobs in an area is a key component of a prosperous economy and society. Here is why economic development is important.
- Diversification of industry: A key component of economic development is the diversification of the economy, which reduces a region’s reliance on a single industry. For example, while tourism is important for job creation in the Orlando area, economic development efforts by the FL Economic Development council also help to grow industries other than tourism, such as Digital Media, Innovative Technologies, Healthcare, Life Sciences, Aerospace & Defense, Aviation, Advanced Manufacturing, Business Services etc.
