Welcome note

Dear Web- visitor,

Welcome to the Jordan National Competitiveness Observatory (JNCO) Website.
Competitiveness is the key word in economic development today as the world economy has entered a new era of competition. Traditional barriers have begun to fall, new sophisticated competitors have emerged, and global rivalry is the new accepted norm. The new emerging development paradigm is one that involves the entire market and every economic institution.

The JNCO is the institutionalized form of the former national competitiveness team with a vision of continuous economic sectors’ researching and benchmarking to regional and international markets. This is the tool that enriches the reference data base that we provide for all stakeholders at these sectors. We consider direct dialogue and surveying as valuable resources for real assessment of economy competitiveness status and for information gathering.

Jordan Competitiveness Observatory will be tracking the Kingdom's competitive performance forming a reference data base at both the macro- and micro- levels, and acting as an early warning signaling system. We will resume being the only counterpart of the World Economic Forum, the Institute of Management Development Competitiveness Yearbook Report (WCY) and Arab Planning Institute. Our team works hard to help establishing a competitive environment in which Jordanian firms can succeed. The public-private relationships bridged by the Observatory team members help instate policies that are favorable to Jordan's industrial success and guiding for decision makers and consequently will help them grow competitive in the world markets. It is aimed to make our work more public, substantial and influential.

The observatory data and research hard work will be available for the public with special access permissions to registered stakeholders for more in depth data, researches and analysis processing.

We'd love to hear from you with any suggestions or comments you might have on the observatory's work. Please feel free to contact us.
 

Best Regards,
Amjad Attar
Director
Jordan National Competitiveness Observatory
