Abstract
The intent of the two competitive cities
case studies is to highlight what institutions and
strategies successful cities have relied on to spur economic
development, under what conditions such success has
occurred, and what lessons of this experience might be
applicable to decision makers in other cities. This research
was prepared by the Tokyo Development Learning Center (TDLC)
under the auspices of the Social, Urban, Rural, and
Resilience Global of the World Bank Group. Its objective is
to create a knowledge base on what makes cities competitive,
understand job creation at the city level, and capture the
unique development experience of Japan for broad
dissemination to development practitioners, government
officials, academia and the private sector. The team would
like to gratefully acknowledge the Government of Japan and
its continued support of the Tokyo Development Learning
Center (TDLC) program.
