The Manchester-Nashua MSA has 25,684 people working in the
science/engineering industry. The strength of this industry is derived
from the robust talent base in the city and region, which is in part
fueled by Nashua’s proximity to the high concentration of colleges and
universities in Boston and Cambridge. Apart from a talented workforce,
Nashua is able to offer an eclectic variety of office space and R&D
facilities for companies to conduct business. These spaces range from
high quality office and mill buildings in an urban downtown setting, to
suburban office parks that offer larger spaces with more direct highway
access.
