多倫多的科技行業(yè)是如此火熱,，以至于這座城市去年創(chuàng)造的科技類工作機(jī)會(huì)超過(guò)了舊金山灣區(qū),、西雅圖和華盛頓的總和，它的“人才市場(chǎng)”排名也一躍超過(guò)了紐約,。

世邦魏理仕（CBRE Group）上周二公布的最新年度調(diào)查結(jié)果顯示,，多倫多是2017年增長(zhǎng)最快的科技類就業(yè)市場(chǎng)，創(chuàng)造了28900個(gè)科技類工作機(jī)會(huì),，同比上升14%,；科技類就業(yè)者總數(shù)突破24.1萬(wàn)，五年來(lái)增長(zhǎng)了52%,。在市區(qū),，逾三分之一的辦公空間需求都來(lái)自科技公司。

作為加拿大最大城市,，多倫多在“科技人才”方面,，或者說(shuō)在一個(gè)綜合性競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力指標(biāo)上壓過(guò)了紐約，緊隨舊金山灣區(qū),、西雅圖和華盛頓之后,。世邦魏理仕比較了北美50多個(gè)市場(chǎng)，衡量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)包括人才供給,、集中度,、受教育程度、成本,、就業(yè)前景以及寫字樓和公寓租金增速等,。

這家房地產(chǎn)服務(wù)機(jī)構(gòu)在美國(guó)調(diào)查了約500萬(wàn)科技類就業(yè)者，在加拿大調(diào)查的人數(shù)超過(guò)83萬(wàn),，覆蓋了各個(gè)行業(yè),。

對(duì)用人單位來(lái)說(shuō)，所有市場(chǎng)的勞動(dòng)力和場(chǎng)地成本都上升了,，就算在成本最低的蒙特利爾,，漲幅也達(dá)到了13%。

世邦魏理仕加拿大分公司執(zhí)行董事總經(jīng)理保羅·莫拉蘇蒂在和調(diào)查報(bào)告一起發(fā)布的聲明中表示：“尋找物業(yè)服務(wù)的公司正在認(rèn)真考慮在加拿大安家,?！彼€說(shuō),，多倫多對(duì)科技公司來(lái)說(shuō)是性價(jià)比最高的城市之一，因?yàn)檫@里的勞動(dòng)力和房地產(chǎn)成本較低,，就業(yè)者受教育程度高,。報(bào)告指出，美國(guó)中西部的性價(jià)比也很高,。

一家500人的公司需要7.5萬(wàn)平方英尺（7000平方米）辦公場(chǎng)地,，年度總成本最低的是蒙特利爾，為2760萬(wàn)美元,，最高的渥太華達(dá)到3229萬(wàn),，多倫多的成本處于二者之間，為3020萬(wàn)美元,。在世邦魏理仕調(diào)查的美國(guó)市場(chǎng)中,，成本最低的是紐約州羅切斯特市，為3630萬(wàn)美元,，舊金山灣區(qū)的成本則達(dá)到5740萬(wàn)美元,。

莫拉蘇蒂在電話采訪中說(shuō)：“這里的創(chuàng)新和科技推動(dòng)力真的處于初期階段。但說(shuō)到整體成本,，就算假設(shè)寫字樓租金,、住房成本和薪酬面臨上升壓力，我們的主要市場(chǎng)仍比美國(guó)的便宜得多,?！?

為衡量這些市場(chǎng)的增長(zhǎng)潛力，世邦魏理仕比較了科技類就業(yè)者的集中度,，或者說(shuō)他們?cè)谒芯蜆I(yè)人口中占的百分比,。在這方面，勝出的是加拿大首都渥太華,，它的科技類就業(yè)者集中度為11.2%,，是美國(guó)全國(guó)平均值3.5%的三倍以上。多倫多的科技類就業(yè)者集中度為8.9%,，位居第三,。

世邦魏理仕渥太華分公司董事總經(jīng)理肖恩·漢密爾頓在一份聲明中稱：“渥太華正在擺脫行政小鎮(zhèn)形象。這里有1700多家科技公司,，雇傭了7萬(wàn)多科技類人才,。五年來(lái)，城市科技公司已經(jīng)成為渥太華市中心的第二大用戶群體,，超過(guò)了會(huì)計(jì)和法律行業(yè)之和,。”

本次調(diào)查中排名上升的美國(guó)城市包括俄亥俄州的克利夫蘭市和哥倫布市以及加州圣迭戈市。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)）

Toronto’s tech scene is so hot the city created more jobs than the San Francisco Bay area, Seattle, and Washington, D.C., combined last year, while leapfrogging New York in a ranking of “talent markets.”

Toronto was the fastest-growing tech-jobs market in 2017, according to CBRE Group Inc.’s latest annual survey, released last Tuesday. The city saw 28,900 tech jobs created, 14 percent more than in 2016, for a total of more than 241,000 workers, up 52 percent over the past five years, CBRE said. Downtown, tech accounted for more than a third of demand for office space.

Canada’s biggest city took fourth place in “tech talent,” a broad measure of competitiveness, pushing New York down a notch and coming in just after the Bay Area, Seattle and the U.S. capital. CBRE ranked 50 markets across North America, using measures such as talent supply, concentration, education and cost as well as outlooks for job and rent growth for both offices and apartments.

The real estate services firm cited some 5 million technology workers in the U.S. and more than 830,000 in Canada, across all sectors.

For employers, combined labor and occupancy costs increased in every market, by 13 percent even in the least expensive one, Montreal.

“Companies looking to house operations are putting serious thought to locating in Canada,” Paul Morassutti, executive managing director at CBRE Canada, said in a statement accompanying the report. Toronto is among the best values for tech firms, he said, citing cheaper labor and real estate and a well-educated workforce. The U.S. Midwest offers good value as well, the report noted.

A 500-worker company requiring 75,000 square feet (7,000 square meters) of office space can expect total annual costs, in U.S. dollars, to range from $27.6 million in Montreal to $32.2 million in Ottawa, with Toronto in the middle at $30.2 million. The costs in Rochester, New York, the cheapest U.S. market of those CBRE studied, amount to $36.3 million, while the Bay Area adds up to $57.4 million.

“The forces that are driving innovation and technology are really in the early stages here,” Morassutti said by phone. “When it comes to overall costs, even if you assume upward pressure on office rents, housing and salaries, our major markets still constitute a significant bargain to the U.S.”

To measure a market’s growth potential, CBRE looked at the concentration of technology labor as a percentage of total employment. Here the winner was Ottawa, Canada’s capital, at 11.2 percent, more than three times the U.S. national average of 3.5 percent. Toronto came in third, at 8.9 percent.

“Ottawa is shedding its government-town image. It is home to over 1,700 technology companies and employs over 70,000 tech-talent employees,” Shawn Hamilton, managing director of CBRE Ottawa, said in the statement. “In the last five years, urban tech has grown to be the second-largest user group in downtown Ottawa, bigger than the accounting and legal sectors combined.”

U.S. markets rising in the study’s ranks include Cleveland and Columbus, in Ohio, and San Diego.
