Video Title: (Portlands Clean Tech Industry) Video Duration: 3:21 From: PDXDevelopmentComm Category: Science and Technology over the next five years, the portland development commission and the city of portland will help organize clusters across a range of niches within the clean tech category to help retain and grow these local companies. currently identified niches include renewable energy, green building, energy efficiency, electric vehicles, and waste reduction and recycling. the priorities established for each of these clusters will guide the city's efforts in growing the clean tech industry. the priorities are likely to differ for each niche: the city's efforts with respect to the renewable energy sector have focused on recruitment, while early work with electric vehicle manufacturers and suppliers is concerned with mapping the regional supply chain and identifying gaps to growing the electric vehicle industry. the workplans for each sector will include specific actions, including entrepreneurial training, talent development and access to capital, to increase the level of start-up activity and internal job creation. for more information visit pdxcleantech and for more information about the portland development commission visit video produced by john cárdenas and anne mangan.
