Cities combine diversity – of population and resources of all kinds. Unique assets show the innovative capacity and the bunch of possibilities of each city. Under today’s economic conditions, in the global knowledge economy that is driven by information, creativity, innovation and technology, when cities are at centre stage, these special urban characteristic are of the biggest importance. The elimination, and in some places even the reduction, of national trade barriers has brought us to the moment when either people or businesses are choosing to locate and expand in cities that have the mix of economic, social, political and other attributes for long term success. As a result of urban renaissance we are witnessing the rapid growth of many North American and European cities. Urban-based industries are the fast-growth industries, people are moving back to cities and central governments are commencing massive urban regeneration schemes. It more and more widely recognized that cities are the focal points of national economies and should follow through with proactive urban regeneration strategies and investment funding. 1.3. Role of Tbilisi in Georgia in region Tbilisi in the region After the collapse of the Soviet Union Georgia is regaining its traditional role in the region. The country is situated along the transport links connecting Asia with Europe and Tbilisi plays the role of service centre influencing Caucasus and the neighboring regions. In the regional exchange Tbilisi tries to become the central point of: • economic life with advanced services where the most competitive business of the region operate from, • political life with the head offices of international organizations and donor organizations operating in the region, • education and research that attract young people from the whole region, • culture and sport with the most important sports and cultural events in the region, • tourist industry with the largest number of visitors. The list of Tbilisi competitors in the region includes the cities of Ukraine, Turkey, Russia, Azerbaijan, Armenia and the countries of central Asia that aspire to the position of the regional service centre. Due to the political situation there are no cooperation links in the region and, therefore, Tbilisi has no competition in Northern Caucasus as well as in the neighbouring parts of Russia. Moreover, none of the Ukrainian cities attempts to play an active role in Caucasus so there is no alternative for Tbilisi. Despite dynamic economic exchange with Turkey, in its eastern part there are no strong urban centres that could be able to compete with Tbilisi. That leaves us with Baku and Erevan, the capital cities of Azerbaijan and Armenia as Tbilisi’s natural and historical rivals. In Central Asia it is Kazakhstan with its strong political and economic position that boasts the role of a regional leader. Its authorities, businesses and organisations are very active and have achieved the position of an important economic partner as well as the key investors in the region. 10
Kazakh cities, mainly Astana and Alma-Ata, are likely to become regional centres that influence neighbouring countries and attract investors, events and people. Numerous investments in Astana and the plans of further local development make the city a regional leader. Also, the historical, institutional and demographic potential of Alma-Ata positions this city as another significant competition in the region. The political, social and economic situation in other countries of Central Asia results in the limited potential of other cities in the region, so they cannot threaten the leading position of Tbilisi. Therefore, the cities eventually included in the comparative analysis were Astana, Alma-Ata, Baku and Erevan. The City team and the consultants carried out the SWOT analysis of Tbilisi, relating its position in the region to Astana, Alma-Ata, Baku and Erevan. By means of the SWOT competitive assessment in the system of coordinates the X axis (horizontal) the strengths and opportunities of Tbilisi were placed. Taking into consideration the time factor and analysing the prospective changes that are likely to happen in Tbilisi and in its rival cities the areas of threats and opportunities were placed on the Y axis (vertical).
