Dayton welcomes businesses of all varieties, but the City's asset-based development model is tightly focused on five key industry clusters. Each cluster represents a high-growth sector for the Dayton region, including:
- Aerospace R&D
- Human Sciences & Health Care
- Information Technology
- Advanced Materials and Manufacturing
- Water
Each of these sectors is rooted in a STEM field and one of Dayton's valuable regional assets such as
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base or the Great Miami Buried Aquifer. By concentrating on Dayton's core competencies and strategic advantages, the community provides a fertile business environment for entrepreneurs and investors alike.
