Índice de Competitividad Territorial aplicado a los Cantones de Heredia

Abstract

La competitividad territorial de los cantones de Heredia es evaluada en el presente documento por medio de un índice que pondera cinco componentes agregados básicos: económico-empresarial, socio-demográfico, infraestructura, institucional y ambiental. Los resultados permiten identificar las debilidades y fortalezas competitivas del cantón particular, proporcionando información valiosa para el empresario inversionista, para evaluar la permanencia o apertura de una actividad productiva en el territorio y para las autoridades locales, al identificar las variables por mejorar. El índice de competitividad territorial clasifica los cantones según el nivel de competitividad asociado, identifica las variables que explican dicha competitividad y la ubicación de las pymes en una localidad. Además compara los resultados del ICT con otras metodologías utilizadas en el país para medir aspectos económicos, de desarrollo humano, social y municipal en los territorios, permitiendo una visión amplia de la competitividad asociada al cantón particular.

The Territorial Competitiveness Index in Heredia cantonsis assessed in this paper using a weighted index including five basic components: economic-business, socio-demographic, infrastructure, local governance, and environmental. Results help identify competitive strengths and weaknesses of each canton, which provides valuable information to entrepreneurial investors in order to assess the permanence or opening of a productive activity in the territory and to local authorities in order to identify variables to improve. The Territorial Competitiveness Index classifies cantons by the level of competitiveness associatedandidentifies the variables that explain such competitiveness and the location of SMEs. Results are compared with other methodologies used in the country to measure socio-economic aspects, human, and local government development, allowing for a broad view of the particular competitive aspects related to each canton.
