Zastosowanie wielowymiarowej analizy porównawczej do oceny potencjalnej atrakcyjności inwestycyjnej polskich województw

Potential investment attractiveness of a region results from a number of elements. One has to consider the following areas here: internationalisation of a region, regional market of labour, absorptiveness of regional market, social infrastructure, technical infrastructure, level of economic development, R+D sector, education sector. An attempt has been made in the paper to evaluate potential investment attractiveness of the Polish voivodships in 2010. A chosen method of multivariate comparative analysis, i.e. Z.Hellwig's method of taxonomic measure of development, has been adopted for the analysis. The highest potential investment attractiveness has been observed in the mazovia voivodship and the silesian voivodship. The warmia-mazuria voivodship and the lubelskie voivodship constitute the group of regions with the lowest level of potential investment attractiveness.
