Forthcoming

The first issue of “Geoeconomics Briefs” will be available for downloading from our website as of mid-October 2008. These bi-monthly notes are designed to provide technical and analytical support to people working in the field of local and regional economic development. They can be used for reality checks and quality-testing or challenging external consultants’ reports and government reviews. They aim to promote more questioning and independent thinking, and improved analysis and evidence as called for economic policymaking, planning and evaluation.

We undertake research in three areas that are both intellectually and politically challenging – sustainable economies, social enterprise and investment and corporate responsibility. Across these areas we provide strategic consultancy to public, private and third sector clients.

We have developed highly sophisticated tools that provide our clients with insight, evidence and options for strategy development.
