Philly Market - Job Diversity
I am working on my market research of Philadelphia and have a few concerns about the job diversity and resiliency. I have found an article where an NYU marketing professor told Business Insider that some colleges and universities may not reopen after the coronavirus, with Drexel being one of them. Here's the link: https://www.businessinsider.com/scott-galloway-predicts-colleges-will-close-due-to-pandemic-2020-5
Despite being strong in the medical and educational fields, I fear that the current situation will impact it, thus in turn, affect the market. What is everyone's opinion/insights on the current market conditions in regards to these sectors? Have you seen Philly making progress to bring in a more diverse job market or planning to do so in the next 5 years?
Looking forward to hear your thoughts about this!
