Supporting infrastructureOne Cape 2040 is a living document and requires on-going innovation, experimentation and updating. This needs to be supported by:1. One Cape institutional partnership (via EDP) which:

• Creates a space for permanent innovation and experimentation

• Allows for co-ordination, collaboration and organising around the strategy, key outcomes and interventions

• On-going mandate and roles development

2. Development of economic leadership capacity 3. The development of aligned plans between all three

spheres of government (including resource allocation)4. Monitoring and evaluation5. Communication

Processes and tools needed:• Single databank of reliable economic data (e.g. WCG synergy

meeting in July – PERO/ MERO; PSDF Review; Growth Potential of Towns; GIS mapping, etc.) Thereafter bring in local government, national government, private sector and knowledge institutions

• On-going research to support the continued improvement of the plan (evidence-based planning)

• The development and activation of a Western Cape Competitiveness Index

• PERO recommendations (Provincial Treasury - September)• Review of LED strategy (DEDAT - October)• On-going recalibration of institutional relationships to better

support economic development (via EDP members and partners)
