A group of students decided to do an investigation about the location of high technology industries. They wanted to discover more about some location factors which they had studied in their course. These factors are shown in Fig. 12 (Insert). The students based their hypotheses on two of these factors. Hypothesis 1: Companies in high technology industries are usually located near to other similar high technology companies.
