Regional Economic Strategy
for the Central Puget Sound Region

On September 27, 2005, the Central Puget Sound Economic Development District Board unanimously adopted the Regional Economic Strategy for the Central Puget Sound Region, a set of detailed action initiatives to create 100,000 new jobs for the region and long-term economic prosperity for all. The Strategy, its summary and the supporting documents used to create it are available below.

In 2008, the Prosperity Partnership will be revising the strategy by conducting cluster strategy development for two new industry clusters - military and tourism - including 1) economic data collection and analysis, 2) recruitment and facilitation of a working group that is representative of the cluster’s diverse stakeholders and 3) the creation of a report based on tangible recommendations from the groups that indicate specific steps, timelines and implementation responsibility. The revised Regional Economic Strategy will be released in December 2008.
