Assessing the economic impact of project investments requires
effective techniques to define impact mechanisms and measure likely
outputs and outcomes.
GENECON has been at the forefront of new impact assessment
methodologies and has prepared many impact assessments to support
investment decisions.
We have:
- measured the effects of new business space provision on local
enterprise development across the South East and North East;
- developed the economic case for Carbon Capture & Storage in
the North East
- assessed the economic effects of housing regeneration in
Newcastle's West End, across the Tees Valley and in East
Birmingham;
- advised on the economic impact of Yorkshire's heritage assets
and the impact of visitor facilities at Hadrian's Wall and Lowther
Castle;
- assessed the economic value of investments in major cultural
facilities, including Margate's Turner Gallery, Liverpool's
Everyman Theatre and a new events arena in Leeds;
- examined the local economic impact of arts programmes in
Lancashire;
- developed a national 'tool-box' for valuing the economic
benefits of Green Infrastructure.
