Unlocking Economic Growth: The Power of Evidence-Based Policy

🚀 Unlocking Economic Growth: The Power of Evidence-Based Policy 📊

In a world driven by data, the key to successful local and regional economic development lies in evidence-based policy.

Clear communication of research findings, a culture that values evaluation, and evidence-driven insights are the pillars of progress.

We need to continue to champion accessible information for informed policymaking and transformative action – but remember (!) information (aka data tables and dashboards) is not intelligence.

For intelligence – you will need to interpret the and triangulate multiple data sources to understand why the economy is performing or structured in the way you observe. And you will need to put this in the context of local economic history, industries, key businesses, institutions – and national and global economic trends.

For insights into policy and practice, you will often need a specialist.
