Strategic Focus Areas. The targeted outcomes of employment and investment are pursued via three strategic focus areas described below, covering; (i) an internal focus on strengthening businesses and growth conditions within the Comox Valley; (ii) an outward focus on selling the Comox Valley to the world and attracting external investment, visitors and new residents; and (iii) a liaison focus that ties together partners and stakeholders, dedicates resources to joint pursuit of economic development objectives, and communicates both achievements and messages in support of economic development goals. These focus areas are complementary in that they are ultimately working toward the same ends and there is some overlap between the areas on given projects and initiatives. But they also provide a useful functional division for CVEDS staffing and budgeting purposes and for communicating to the public and stakeholders, what CVEDS does. Each of the programs in the economic development strategic plan are contained within one of the three focus areas, as shown in Chapters 4 to 6. Business retention and expansion (BRE) is a core focus of many economic development organizations. Analogous to the clear benefit of supporting existing businesses is the notion where, for a given business, the costs of retaining an existing customer are far lower than the costs of acquiring a new customer. The share of employment growth from BRE is estimated in various places from 60% to 90% (a recent estimates reported by the University of Minnesota is 86%). Programs within Focus Area One are directed toward supporting existing companies and industries and helping them expand. It also includes programs that provide the building blocks for economic growth, including workforce development.

Strategic Focus Areas. ‌ In this section, we present the overall strategic focus areas for the IT University in the period of the coming development contract, based on the analysis in Section 3. The goals are listed in Figure 2. Let us consider them one by one. 4.1 Growth‌ In 2004, ITU will move into its new building in Ørestad. This new building represents a very significant public investment in IT research and IT education. However, the ITU building in Ørestad is also part of a larger national strategy of creating a strong competence center for media, culture and communication technology in Ørestad. The ITU is committed to and excited about this strategy, cf. G1. Therefore, we propose a number of result goals which are intended to support the overall Ørestad project. As for the ITU itself, ITU must increase its output of candidates, Ph.D.s and col- laboration with external partners. For this to happen, the ITU itself must grow, while maintaining high standards, cf. G2.
