The San Diego Institute for Policy Research (SDI), in partnership with CONNECT, developed a Technology Start-Up Index to measure the number of new technology-based companies in the San Diego region. The aim of the CONNECT Index of New Technology Business ("CONNECT-dex") is to provide a comprehensive measure for the number of new businesses created in the high- technology and life science sectors in San Diego County.
With San Diego's economic vitality and growth increasingly dependent upon the high-value, high-wage jobs created by technology and life science firms, this unique index will provide a key measurement of the region's potential for future economic output. As such, CONNECT-dex will help the community gain a better appreciation of the impact of its emerging businesses. The index provides quantitative validation that San Diego is one of the leading tech centers, not only in California and the nation, but in the world.
