Snohomish County Leading Industries

Leading Industries
Aerospace, Life Sciences (Biotechnology and Biomedical Device) and Advanced Technology Manufacturing represent our top industry clusters, although the short drive from Seattle, Bellevue and Redmond to Snohomish County is diversifying our industry base and strengthening our economy.  High Technology, Health Care and Finance are other industries gaining a stronghold in Snohomish County.    
    
Aerospace and Biomedical Device Innovation Partnership Zones
Snohomish is the only county in the State to offer two Innovation Partnership Zones, where a combination of global companies, major research institutions, skilled workers and public resources catalyze for advanced technologies and economic growth. Each zone furthers the industry’s development by attracting more businesses to these designated clusters.
