Hillsborough taxpayers paid many tens of thousands of dollars on County economic development studies to determine which specific industries should be targeted in order to create local high-paying jobs.
Those “target industries” included:
- Biotechnology & Medical Devices
- Medicine & Medical Management
- Electronic Health Records
- Medical Simulation & Training
- Cross-Business Functions
- Shared Services
- Business Analytics
- Information Technology
- Headquarters Enabling Functions
- Financial Services
- Middle/Back Office Operations
- Defense & Security
- Security and Technology
- Security/Intelligence Consulting
Answer: none, they all went to the land development industry.
