Driving Productivity Growth: The Importance of Firm-Specific Knowledge AssetsStructuralpolicyanalysis

Winning with the Industrial Internet of Things: How to accelerate the journey...accenture
The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) will bring new economic growth, reinventing sectors that account for almost two-thirds of world output. The raw technical conditions for the widespread adoption of the IIoT are highly favorable. Today, the IIoT is helping to improve productivity, reduce operating costs and enhance worker safety. As the world struggles to emerge from a phase of weak productivity growth, fragile employment and pockets of inadequate demand, the IIoT offers a chance to redefine many sectors and accelerate economic and employment growth.
In this report, we have a clear objective of planning and designing the IT structure and its implementation in the firm.
The objectives are as follows:
• Analyse the IT sector scenario and the company structure and working
• Risk assessment of the business environment
• Process, Application and Technology Integration
• Define a cloud strategy for Mindfire Solutions
• Devise the Technology Scorecard for the departments
• Suggest Change Management in regards to cloud implementation
• Prepare an action plan for each stakeholder
• State the benefits of the IT implementation
Verantwoord Beleggen Nederlandse Pensioenfondsen: 2017 Dutch GRESB EventGRESB
In de pensioensector wordt steeds meer aandacht gegeven aan het thema verantwoord beleggen en is zelfs onderdeel van de eigen Code Pensioenfondsen. Het aantal pensioenfondsen dat zich sterk maakt voor verantwoord beleggen, vanuit zowel een financieel als maatschappelijk oogpunt, neemt toe. Naast financiële kengetallen wordt gestuurd op zogenaamde ESG-indicatoren (Environmental, Social en Governance).
Universiteit Maastricht, GRESB en Finance Ideas hebben de handen ineengeslagen om de integratie van ESG in het beleggingsproces van pensioenfondsen te onderzoeken. De resultaten van het onderzoek worden tijdens het seminar kort uiteengezet en vormen de aftrap voor een actieve dialoog hoe ver integratie van ESG in vastgoedportefeuilles kan gaan.
Uit academisch onderzoek blijkt dat duurzaam vastgoed meer waard is in vergelijking met niet duurzaam vastgoed. Toch is het integreren van ESG-indicatoren in het vastgoed beleggingsproces nog geen gemeengoed binnen de Nederlandse pensioensector. Het doel van de paneldiscussie is om te laten zien hoe actieve samenwerking en kennisdeling kan leiden tot meer duurzame vastgoedbeleggingen.

2. The project
SDG and Business Surveys - Krakah and Kiøsterud2
•More mileage from existing data
•Improve fact base for achieving the SDGs
•Contribute to improve the literature on using
business surveys data for deriving SGD and
other policy indicators
•Develop a report on indicators using business
survey data
3. Business surveys
SDG and Business Surveys - Krakah and Kiøsterud3
• This involves conducting surveys on firms to obtain data
on firm operations
• It requires having a comprehensive and exhaustive
business register
• This business register has all basic information e.g
employment and adresses of firms
• Samples for the business survey are selected from the
business register
• Data collection includes inputs, outputs, detail cost etc
4. Implementation of project
SDG and Business Surveys - Krakah and Kiøsterud4
Two starting points:
1. Starting with the SDGs and look for areas where
enterprise surveys cover the official indicators or provide
more information on the issues
2. Starting with the IBES I and IBES II questionnaires and
look for questions asked that can be turned into
interesting SDG related information
5. GOAL 1 ELIMINATE POVERTY

Insurance and/or compensation to
work injury victims. Whether or not
the business provides such
insurance, which employees it
covers, how large it is.
Ideas for around 40

11. Main findings
SDG and Business Surveys - Krakah and Kiøsterud11
• Business Surveys are one of several necessary sources to produce
some core indicators, like GDP, emissions to air etc
• Only two of the official indicators names Business Surveys as
recommended source
• There are however many areas where businesses are core in reaching
the goals. Business statistics can provide more information for policy
development and monitoring
12. Final output
SDG and Business Surveys - Krakah and Kiøsterud12
• Work in progress – GSS is still publishing core results from the IBES
• We are working on a discussion report with the overviews and will include chosen
tables after they have been released by GSS
• Maybe inspiring others to look at which business statistics it can be relevant to include
in national SDG monitoring system
• Since job creation and industrialisation are critical for human development, it is vital to
examine some relevant indicators using firm data
• The GSS would derive indicators from all sources including firms censuses and sample
surveys and make them available for both domestic policy use and international
comparison
• If you want to receive this final report, please e-mail us!
The blue section is the official description of the SDG indicators
What we did was to add suggestions that could be included in a business survey to learn the status of these issues within the business sectors
What we do have is not businesses access to electricitiy – or to bank services, internet and phones, insurance or other services that are interesting in SDG context.
What the survey has is information on which businesses who spent money on those particulare survices.
These headlines goes across goals.
Energy intensity defined here as total electricity expenditure divided by to expenditure
