Description
GTECS is part of the OAS Inter-American Competitiveness Network (RIAC), which brings together ministers, high-level authorities and other stakeholders leading the competitiveness, innovation, and economic development agendas of the OAS Member States. The RIAC promotes policy dialogue, exchange of experiences and collaborative initiatives among decision-makers from the public, private, and academic sectors to foster integral development in the Americas.
The GTECS enhances the efforts of regions and localities to become more competitive through the exchange of experiences with other sub-regions, countries, and institutions from the Americas and beyond. In the context of GTECS, as a regional community of practice, experts, government representatives, academic and private sector of OAS member states, share experiences on local-regional innovation and competitiveness indicators, strategies to improve the business climate, methodologies to benchmark competitiveness, insights to develop local and regional competitiveness agendas, projects to map and support clusters, and incentives to build smart specialization.
