Mobilize Northern Maine

Since 2009, Aroostook Partnership for Progress and the Northern Maine Development Commission have been working with consultants from ViTAL Economy as well as community and industry leaders, to implement Mobilize Maine in northern Maine. The development process has involved establishing five-year goals, mapping the region’s indigenous assets, and conducting an in-depth analysis for two industry clusters: Renewable Energy and Information Technology/Operations Centers.

Next steps for Mobilize Northern Maine includes completing the business case and opportunities analysis for the two industry clusters, and utilizing industry action teams to explore the feasibility of prospects for aerospace, secondary wood products, and tourism development. Working groups have been established for the Renewable Energy and IT industry cluster to identity and implement niche market strategies indicated in the final reports.
