Regional development strategies
Background
â–· Brexit, the Green Transition, Covid-19 and related recovery spending will have a significant impact on regional development across Europe.
​
â–· Given their distinct industrial organisation and historical path-dependencies, the nature of the new challenges and opportunities will differ between regions.
​
Important topics for political economic actors include:
-
Existing and potential future regional comparative advantages and related challenges
-
Institutional structures that produce public goods, such as vocational education systems and inter-firm cooperation networks
-
Industrial strategy and transformation management
