34:1B-81. Findings, declarations relative to strategies promoting businesses
2. The Legislature finds and declares that:
a. The Department of Commerce and Economic Development admirably provides generic services and technical assistance to businesses that request such help;
b. The department should now complement its existing, generic types of assistance with appropriate, specific strategies oriented towards promoting businesses in high potential and mid-potential growth industry sectors, and businesses in declining industry sectors that have the potential for revitalization; and
c. These new, specific strategies may include assistance in the creation of industry sector networks wherein similar businesses work together and learn from each other thereby enabling such networks to benefit from economies of scale and thus enhance their competitiveness in current markets and also permit their entry into new, larger markets.
