This National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant award under the NSF Technology, Innovation, and Partnerships (TIP) program (CFDA 47.084) supports research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to better understand industry clustering patterns and how geographic proximity to technology infrastructure can impact job growth, job quality, and economic opportunity in regional economies.

The $299,965 award will fund the creation of nearly 75 million data points to document industry concentration trends, particularly in tech and innovation-driven sectors, over time and space. This data will provide regional policymakers and practitioners with critical insights to support scaling tech-based industries in the coming decades. The project aims to complement existing work on the geography of innovation by examining firm decision-making and the role of geographic clustering in promoting economic growth and opportunity.
