For a place to be identified as a GP [growth point], it had to offer a comparatively higher potential to attract investment, entrepreneurs, consumers and marketing agents. With the convergence of these factors and players, that place would essentially attract infrastructural developments as well as the implantation of administrative and other supportive services. In the main, such a place should gradually evolve as an industrial nucleus. 3, record 1, English, - growth%20centre
