High Hopes for High Tech

North Carolina is one of the states that specifically targeted industrial development efforts toward the microelectronic industry and, in 1981, established an independent, nonprofit organization, the Microelectronics Center of North Carolina, dedicated to educational and research activity in this field of technology. This volume examines some of the planning and policy issues raised by the state's efforts to attract the industry and details the objectives of its policy.
