國內外地方特色發展策略之個案研究

將地方特有資源產業化，使之成為特色產品或服務，以活絡地方經濟、創造就業機會與擴展勞動市場，近年來已成為國內外發展地方經濟的重要方式。尤其是資訊科技技術與工具的發展與應用，對於當前各地方的經濟及產業升級、轉型，更有關鍵性影響，因而造成各國各城市積極推動智慧城市，以促使地方特色發展進入科技化階段。本研究透過國內外擁有特色資源的地方發展經驗，挑選具國際知名度的美國濱江市智慧城市、臺北市智慧城市、日本德島縣及香川縣的地方創生、澎湖生態島等成功實例，探索其運用科技以擴展勞動市場、發展地方特色產業的策略，以發掘地方特色發展的要素，以為本研究參酌之處。本研究以個案研究方法，探究國內外地方特色發展的經驗，歸納出成功個案的四個特色，分別是：領導整合、彈性創新、外部支援與人力培育。未來地方特色資源的發揮，可更著重於該四項因素的發展。
