Which industries dominate in Atlanta?

Two views of Atlanta's economy: the registered/startup layer and the street-level business fabric, with the largest tracked employers.

Summary

The economy is broad, with technology, sports, retail, manufacturing and healthcare each scoring 10/10 in blended sector strength. Technology has 2467 registered companies and healthcare 1551. Frazier & Deeter's acquisition of Copeland Buhl and Silvercrest's first Atlanta office add fresh signs of business-services activity.

WATCH Watch whether new finance and consulting offices deepen beyond headline expansion.
