波士頓的大學是影響該市和整個區域經濟的主要因素。他們不僅是主要的僱主，而且將高技術產業吸引到該市及附近地區，包括計算機硬體與軟體公司，以及生物工程公司（如千禧年醫藥）。波士頓每年從國家健康協會得到的資金是所有美國城市中最多的。其他重要產業有金融業（特別是共同基金）和保險業。以波士頓為基地的富達投資（Fidelity）在1980年代幫助普及共同基金，使得波士頓成為美國的頂級金融城市之一。該市還擁有主要銀行的地區總部如美洲銀行和王者銀行（Sovereign），風險資本的中心.波士頓還是一個印刷與出版業中心。教科書出版商霍頓·米夫林出版社的總部設在市內。該市擁有4個主要的會議中心：海恩斯會議中心在後灣，貝賽德博覽中心在多爾切斯特，波士頓世界貿易中心和波士頓會議展覽中心位於南波士頓的瀕水地區。由於它擁有州首府和聯邦政府地區中心的地位，法律與政府是該市經濟的另一個主要成分。
總部位於該市的大公司有吉列公司（由寶潔公司擁有）和泰瑞達公司（Teradyne），後者是世界頂級的半導體和其他電子試驗設備製造商之一。新百倫（New Balance）將總部設在波士頓。其他大公司則將總部設在市區以外，主要是沿著麻薩諸塞128號公路。波士頓港是美國東海岸的主要海港之一，也是西半球最古老的仍然活躍的商港和漁港之一。
