Government Engagements
Technology represents a crucial component of the global
economy. For government organizations charged with monitoring and influencing
technology industries in their regions, it is a challenge to keep abreast of
emerging technologies and shifting market dynamics.
In the technology marketplace, as in other industries,
countries and even regions compete to attract inward investment to their
regions. Government agencies need to understand how narrow product or market
windows, global or local market dynamics and the increasing technological
sophistication of products influence the ways companies develop their capital
investment strategy.
Governments are also tasked with developing a policy that
will optimize the health of their citizens and their economy. While some
countries take a more hands-off role with regard to industrial policy, many
governments are actively involved in establishing a strategic framework of
programs and policies to support the country's local industries. Technology is
viewed by many governments as an opportunity to launch their economies on to a
higher growth path or as a means to maintain a leading position in the global
economy.
