Economic modelling to evaluate Smart Specialisation: an analysis of research and innovation targets in Southern Europe
提出一种技术驱动方法,通过评估南欧地区实现研发人员目标对GDP的影响,来提升智能专业化政策的有效性,对区域政策制定者和经济学者有参考价值。
We make the case for a technology-enabled approach to Smart Specialisation policymaking aimed at increasing its effectiveness by assessing the general equilibrium effects of the European Cohesion Policy objectives contained in the regional Operational Programmes prepared by the regional policymakers. We simulate the impact of achieving the research and development personnel targets on gross domestic product and its components in a set of Southern European regions. We discuss the implications and challenges of the proposed methodology for future assessments of Smart Specialisation and for its implementation in the regions of the European Union.
