"Developing the intelligence necessary to measure the spatial logics of economic clustering is key for urban policy-makers. This research provides novel methodologies and metrics for refining economic development strategies that are responsive to the various growth stages of multi-sector innovation. While comparative urban benchmarking often fails to capture subsample characteristics, this work forces us to rethink the starting and ending points in time and space and not just the degrees of organizational and sector maturity."
