Special attention is given to the role of institutional support, infrastructure development, human capital formation, and public–private partnerships in enhancing industrial competitiveness. The research highlights that sustainable regional economic growth depends on a comprehensive strategy that integrates structural transformation, productivity improvement, and high value-added production. The findings contribute to the development of effective industrial policies aimed at improving regional economic resilience and long-term competitiveness.
