Military

With major facilities for the army, navy and marine corps, air force and coast guard, the military is a source of significant economic activity for the Puget Sound region. This includes jobs directly on base as well as indirect jobs and sales at local companies. Additionally, contracting opportunities at the local and national levels offer huge potential for Puget Sound region companies.

As a result, the Prosperity Partnership, a regional economic development coalition, recently identified the military as a key cluster and will be working on further economic analysis and strategy development for this important sector. See www.prosperitypartnership.org/clusters/military/index.htm for more information.
