Abstract: | How is the economic diplomacy on the West Coast of the United States? This research provides a unique insight in the effectiveness of economic diplomacy of the Dutch government. While this research looks to the United States and West Coast economy, it also looks to the future of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership. All the states within the jurisdiction of the Consulate General in San Francisco are subjected to a set of economic indicators. Together with the focus industries, the economic indicators determine the two states that appear to be the most promising. The economies of Arizona and Washington State are investigate in detail, as they are the two most promising states. Together with analyzing the states economies, main industries and major cities this research determines that the GDP, state’s imports, job support, state growth and industries determine the effectiveness of the economic diplomacy. Not surprisingly, it turned out that other states hold a number of new opportunities for Dutch economic diplomacy. This research also shows that the strategy developed by the Consulate General in San Francisco is not suited for all the thirteen states. |
