TARGET INDUSTRIES

Target industries for the Bartlesville area were identified from a study by Garner Economics, completed for the BDA in July 2010. Garner selected five industry targets that best match the unique competitive advantages in Bartlesville to the needs of particular industry sectors. Each sector has a record of above-average wages and participation in commercial activities that are expected to create wealth in Bartlesville. These five targets offer opportunities across several non-competing sectors, affording a means to diversify economic development strategies and avoid risky overconcentration.
