Democratizing data through innovative data governance and visualizations
Patrick GILL, Stephen TAPP (Chambers of Commerce, Canada)
Small organizations in Canada struggle with accessing and leveraging data on business conditions and trends. These organizations have expressed difficulty in knowing what is available, accessing it and converting this information into actionable insights. To empower small organizations with more business-related information and insights, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce has built a suite of free tools that merge and visualize traditional statistics with powerful high-frequency data sets (e.g. payments and mobility). This work is enabled by innovate data governance (e.g. a data trust) and a collaborative partnership with Statistics Canada. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is continuing work with Statistics Canada to release more local business information available through the agency’s Business Register (e.g. the mapping of local business districts), and is exploring how Generative AI can support small organizations’ navigation and understanding of the business information it has curated.

Imagina llegar a un parque de atracciones con tu familia y comenzar tu día sin el típico plano que te permitirá planificarte para saber qué espectáculos ver, a qué atracciones ir, donde pueden o no pueden montar los niños… Posiblemente, no podrás sacar el máximo partido a tu día y te habrás perdido muchas cosas. Hay personas que les gusta ir a la aventura e ir descubriendo poco a poco, pero cuando hablamos de negocios, ir a la aventura puede ser fatídico...
En la era de la explosión de la información repartida en distintas fuentes, el gobierno de datos es clave para garantizar la disponibilidad, usabilidad, integridad y seguridad de esa información. Asimismo, el conjunto de procesos, roles y políticas que define permite que las organizaciones alcancen sus objetivos asegurando el uso eficiente de sus datos.
La virtualización de datos, herramienta estratégica para implementar y optimizar el gobierno del dato, permite a las empresas crear una visión 360º de sus datos y establecer controles de seguridad y políticas de acceso sobre toda la infraestructura, independientemente del formato o de su ubicación. De ese modo, reúne múltiples fuentes de datos, las hace accesibles desde una sola capa y proporciona capacidades de trazabilidad para supervisar los cambios en los datos.

FDI and Superstar Spillovers: Evidence from Firm-to-Firm Transactions
Mary AMITI (FED New York, United States)
Despite competition concerns over the increasing dominance of global corporations, many argue that productivity spillovers from multinationals to domestic firms justify pro-FDI policies. For the first time, we use firm-to-firm transaction data in a developed country to examine the impact of forming a new relationship with a multinational, and find a TFP increase of about 8% three or more years after the event. Sales to other buyers, trade and customer quality also increase. However, we also document that starting to supply other “superstar firms” such as those who heavily export or are very large also increases performance by similar amounts, even if the superstar is a non-multinational. Placebos on starting relationships with smaller firms and novel identification strategies relying solely on demand shocks to superstar firms support a causal interpretation. In addition to productivity spillovers, we document the transmission of “relationship capabilities” and “dating agency” effects as the increase in new buyers is particularly strong within the superstar firm’s existing network. These results suggest an important role for raising productivity through the supply chains of superstar firms regardless of their multinational status.

Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level - A...OECD CFE
Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level
Alessandro ALASIA, Dennis HUYNH (Statistics Canada)
In Canada, there is limited analysis on industry locations at the neighbourhood level; location and co-location of industries have been assessed primarily at the regional scale which results in an information gap for businesses. Recent evidence suggests that businesses do not just choose a city for their location, they choose specific business districts within a metropolitan area. Recent improvements in the geolocation of business microdata allow to address the information gap. This work, undertaken as part of the Business Data Lab and in collaboration with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, is a first attempt to map industry locations at the neighbourhood level in major metropolitan areas of Canada. Using establishment-level microdata from the Business Register, we apply spatial kernel density estimations to identify neighbourhoods with high employment/revenue density for selected industries (2-digit NAICS) and industry clusters (grouping of 6-digits NAICS). The geographic delineation of business districts within metropolitan areas is the first step in understanding the evolution of industry location and co-location over time, and assessing local business dynamics at the neighbourhood level. Ultimately, these business districts can be analyzed in combination with additional data sources (e.g., mobility and road traffic) to derive further economic insights.

This study investigates the distribution of the European Union's Horizon 2020 funding programme on rural and urban regions between 2014 and 2020 and the resulting urban-rural links. Leveraging the Horizon 2020-database covering the 2014-20 programming period, which encompasses data on approximately 35,000 funded projects involving nearly 180,000 partners, the paper explores the participation of rural firms and organisations in the broader European research framework. By integrating the urban-rural classification of NUTS 3 regions, the research addresses key questions concerning the involvement of rural regions in Horizon 2020 projects, the structural differences in projects with and without rural participation, and the dynamics of urban-rural collaboration in research. The study further aims to identify potential clusters of rural innovation hubs across Europe and assess spatial disparities.
