industrializers
Economic development pioneers
Industrializers are people, nations, or forces that bring about industrialization—the shift from agricultural or craft-based economies to manufacturing and factory production.
The term appears in historical and economic contexts: The early industrializers of Western Europe transformed global trade patterns.
It may describe deliberate actors or abstractly characterize countries at different stages of development: Late industrializers often leapfrog older technologies.
