Economic Strategy

6.3 Link innovation to the marketplace

Evaluate progress in helping ideas take shape and building a product-to-market culture, and by rating Ottawa's innovative and competitive status against similar cities nationally and internationally.

Establish performance indicators and data sources for comparison, schedule for monitoring and strategy for updating/acting upon findings.

Possible indicators:
