Business Value
Unlike raw government releases, this dataset is fully curated, cleaned, and integrated, eliminating the need for users to reconcile disparate sources. It offers a single, consistent view of U.S. technology sector performance across employment, output, and innovation metrics.
By combining labour, GDP, R&D, and venture capital data in one longitudinal structure, the dataset enables insights that are difficult to extract from siloed sources — saving analysts significant time while improving analytical depth.
Methodology & Sources
Data is compiled from authoritative public datasets and APIs, harmonised using consistent definitions and quality checks. Documentation on variable construction, assumptions, and known limitations is available upon request.
