Industry Diversification Report

The Industry Diversification Report analyzes findings from the RERI-designed FGCU Industry Diversification Index (IDI).  The goal of the IDI is to measure industry diversification and, by extension, that of the workforce, in each of Florida's 24 workforce regions, the state of Florida, and the remaining 49 states.  The report has been produced on a quarterly basis since 2016.
