OECD presentation on decarbonising homes in cities in the Netherlands: a neighbourhood approach. About 90% of homes in the Netherlands depend on natural gas for heating. The Netherlands has made a commitment to phase out natural gas by 2050. To achieve the goal, the Netherlands has rolled out a natural gas-free pilot programme in 66 neighbourhoods. These neighbourhood pilot projects enabled municipalities to learn what it takes to start energy transition. Based on a city survey carried out across 26 local governments, key findings from this report call on national and local governments joining up their efforts to take place-based measures.

Technological change and lower barriers for entrepreneurship have transformed opportunities for doing business in Europe, creating a bright spot at a time of great political uncertainty. Across the continent, each country and region offers varying packages of costs, risks and opportunities for the entrepreneur, including policy incentives, startup support, human capital and cultural advantages. However, it remains challenging for policymakers and entrepreneurs to compare these qualities against one another. Scholars of public policy and business have sought to address this difficulty by developing a number of indices to make these evaluations more transparent. What can these indices tell us about business opportunities and challenges across European states and regions? Why and how do these indices come to different conclusions about the countries and regions they find the most promising? This work examines and compares these indices, and investigates their considerable differences in measurement, methodology and validity. I show that many of these indices take an individualized approach in framing opportunities for entrepreneurship, creating a number of implications for the final assessment. Despite utilizing different indicators and measurements, many of the variables chosen are often related to one another and can be explained by shared phenomena. This assessment of the existing literature allows us to assess how these measurement tools have been used, and how they can be refined in the future. An overview of the current state of research in this field allows us to learn from the innovative ideas that have been developed so far and to discuss the next steps to be taken.

Global events, such as the Olympic and Paralympic Games, world expositions, sporting championships, arts festivals and trade fairs, can be a catalyst for development at both local and national levels. Global events encourage external investment, boost tourism, grow trade, raise the profile of places and bring communities together. They can be used to galvanise commitment to policy priorities and accelerate investment. Fully leveraging the benefits of global events, however, requires significant long-term planning and well-designed monitoring and evaluation frameworks. This slide deck was presented during the OECD webinar "A local stage for global impact: Measuring the impact of sport, culture and business events" launching two OECD Guides on 6 July 2023.

FDI and Superstar Spillovers: Evidence from Firm-to-Firm Transactions Mary AMITI (FED New York, United States) Despite competition concerns over the increasing dominance of global corporations, many argue that productivity spillovers from multinationals to domestic firms justify pro-FDI policies. For the first time, we use firm-to-firm transaction data in a developed country to examine the impact of forming a new relationship with a multinational, and find a TFP increase of about 8% three or more years after the event. Sales to other buyers, trade and customer quality also increase. However, we also document that starting to supply other “superstar firms” such as those who heavily export or are very large also increases performance by similar amounts, even if the superstar is a non-multinational. Placebos on starting relationships with smaller firms and novel identification strategies relying solely on demand shocks to superstar firms support a causal interpretation. In addition to productivity spillovers, we document the transmission of “relationship capabilities” and “dating agency” effects as the increase in new buyers is particularly strong within the superstar firm’s existing network. These results suggest an important role for raising productivity through the supply chains of superstar firms regardless of their multinational status. Find out more at https://oe.cd/spl-mtg

E-invoicing data for functional territories definition: the use case of pharmacies Maria AURINDO (National Institute of Statistics, Portugal) The presentation illustrates how a new Business-to-Consumer (B2C) database extracted from the Portuguese E-invoice system can be an important tool to explore the functional territories concept taking the pharmacies catchment areas as an example. The discussion addresses data integration methodological options and how Statistics Portugal infrastructural information domains – Business register, Building and fraction register and Population register – were crucial for this exercise, developed within the CE-SIG – Map of facilities and services project.

Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level Alessandro ALASIA, Dennis HUYNH (Statistics Canada) In Canada, there is limited analysis on industry locations at the neighbourhood level; location and co-location of industries have been assessed primarily at the regional scale which results in an information gap for businesses. Recent evidence suggests that businesses do not just choose a city for their location, they choose specific business districts within a metropolitan area. Recent improvements in the geolocation of business microdata allow to address the information gap. This work, undertaken as part of the Business Data Lab and in collaboration with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, is a first attempt to map industry locations at the neighbourhood level in major metropolitan areas of Canada. Using establishment-level microdata from the Business Register, we apply spatial kernel density estimations to identify neighbourhoods with high employment/revenue density for selected industries (2-digit NAICS) and industry clusters (grouping of 6-digits NAICS). The geographic delineation of business districts within metropolitan areas is the first step in understanding the evolution of industry location and co-location over time, and assessing local business dynamics at the neighbourhood level. Ultimately, these business districts can be analyzed in combination with additional data sources (e.g., mobility and road traffic) to derive further economic insights.

Democratizing data through innovative data governance and visualizations Patrick GILL, Stephen TAPP (Chambers of Commerce, Canada) Small organizations in Canada struggle with accessing and leveraging data on business conditions and trends. These organizations have expressed difficulty in knowing what is available, accessing it and converting this information into actionable insights. To empower small organizations with more business-related information and insights, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce has built a suite of free tools that merge and visualize traditional statistics with powerful high-frequency data sets (e.g. payments and mobility). This work is enabled by innovate data governance (e.g. a data trust) and a collaborative partnership with Statistics Canada. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is continuing work with Statistics Canada to release more local business information available through the agency’s Business Register (e.g. the mapping of local business districts), and is exploring how Generative AI can support small organizations’ navigation and understanding of the business information it has curated.

Involvement of rural regions in European research networks Rupert KAWKA, Torsten SCHUNDER (Federal Office for Building and regional Planning, Germany) This study investigates the distribution of the European Union's Horizon 2020 funding programme on rural and urban regions between 2014 and 2020 and the resulting urban-rural links. Leveraging the Horizon 2020-database covering the 2014-20 programming period, which encompasses data on approximately 35,000 funded projects involving nearly 180,000 partners, the paper explores the participation of rural firms and organisations in the broader European research framework. By integrating the urban-rural classification of NUTS 3 regions, the research addresses key questions concerning the involvement of rural regions in Horizon 2020 projects, the structural differences in projects with and without rural participation, and the dynamics of urban-rural collaboration in research. The study further aims to identify potential clusters of rural innovation hubs across Europe and assess spatial disparities. Find out more at https://oe.cd/spl-mtg

Forcibly displaced people fleeing violent conflict and other forms of persecution find support from the social and solidarity economy (SSE) along their pathways, from their country of origin to asylum protection. The numbers are growing and new OECD work sheds light on how the specific values and characteristics of SSE entities provide high-quality responses to refugee needs and facilitate integration in host communities. The SSE can support access to rights, empowerment, social and labour market inclusion of refugees. Join this webinar with the UNHCR, SINGA and NESsT Poland to discover how the SSE plays a role in the steps along the way of refugee’s journey.
