The Slovenian government has undertaken a strategic project to develop the social economy sector to levels comparable with other EU countries. Key activities include integrating social economy into development documents, allocating grants and financial instruments, modifying laws on social entrepreneurship and public procurement to support social enterprises, and preparing a national social economy development strategy and system for measuring social impact. Challenges remain in providing further political and financial support, promoting visibility and knowledge, and establishing satellite accounts to measure the sector.

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.

Advancing and democratizing business data in Canada- Patrick Gill & Stephen TappOECD CFE
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.

Horizon 2020 - research networks across borders - Rupert KawkaOECD CFE
Involvement of rural regions in European research networks
Rupert KAWKA, Torsten SCHUNDER (Federal Office for Building and regional Planning, Germany)
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.

How can the social and solidarity economy help refugees along their journey?OECD CFE
Forcibly displaced people fleeing violent conflict and other forms of persecution find support from the social and solidarity economy (SSE) along their pathways, from their country of origin to asylum protection. The numbers are growing and new OECD work sheds light on how the specific values and characteristics of SSE entities provide high-quality responses to refugee needs and facilitate integration in host communities.
The SSE can support access to rights, empowerment, social and labour market inclusion of refugees. Join this webinar with the UNHCR, SINGA and NESsT Poland to discover how the SSE plays a role in the steps along the way of refugee’s journey.

Editor's Notes
Within the coalition agreement of the current government 1 of 10 strategic governmental projects was identified as the one that can help give answers to the growing need of job creation, localization of certain types of services and demands the development of new forms of value-add. The project entitled „Development of social enterprises, cooperatives and economic democracy“ started in 2015 – the same time as the sector of social entrepreneurship was transfered from the Ministry of Labour, Family, Social Affairs and Equal Opportunities to the Ministry of economic development and technology. With this transfer a lot of emphasis was made on the fact that social entrepreneurship must be primarily understood as entrepreneurship, which, in addition to economic effects, also brings different social and environmental effects.
At the begining of the project social economy in Slovenia contributed to 0,7% jobs and 1% GDP. The long term objective of this project (until 2023) is to develop the SOCIAL ECONOMY sector in Slovenia to the comparable level of EU countries. Today in Slovenia we have 253 social enterprises with the formal status of social enterprise in the registry – the number is yet not very big but since the beginning of the strategic project the number increased by more than 350%. This achievement is putting social economy high on the list of priorities of the current government.
Here we have listed just few activities of the strategic project that I believe are most important to boost social economy sector in our country.
Social entrepreneurship is placed in the broader concept of the social economy. By introducing this concept into the amendment to the law, we want to follow the practice of the European Commission, which began to combine individual organizational forms as subjects of the social economy.
Types A and B that are now separating social enterprises according to whether they acquired their status due to their business activity that was defined by law as an activity that provides positive social effects and social enterprises type B, which acquired their status from the employment of a certain proportion of vounerable target groups. This division has in practice brought more negative than positive consequences, from additional reporting requirements to the prevailing general public opinion that social enterprises are mainly companies employing vulnerable target groups and as such need help from the state. With the amendment of the law, we want to encourage public opinion and operations of social enterprises in the direction of ensuring their entrepreneurial base and market sustainability.
As do many European social enterprises also we advocate a wider range of activities of social enterprises that go beyond the integration of vulnerable target groups and social services of general interest. With the amendment of the law we therefore enable the implementation of social entrepreneurship in all areas of economic and non-economic activities, which have impact on stimulating innovation, providing additional supply of products and services in the public interest, developing new employment opportunities, providing additional jobs, social inclusion and vocational integration and reintegration of vulnerable groups into the labor market.
We strive for a complete restriction of profit distribution as some other european countries do, for example, Italy and in Poland. In doing so, we want to emphasize the principle of non-profitability and determine that the status of a social enterprise is really chosen by those non-profit legal entities that pursue the social dimension of social entrepreneurship, where the creation and payment of profits are not the main guiding principle as is the achievement of social effects.
We will also be implementing a Regulation, which will define in more details the qualitative and quantitative standards for monitoring the social effects of social enterprises. The regulation introduces the reporting of social enterprises on the provision of social effects, which will serve as the basis for verifying entitlement to the status of a social enterprise. The purpose of introducing the monitoring of social effects is to show the distinction between social and for-profit enterprises, to prove the rationality and importance of social enterprises and to increase their visibility.
We are changing the strategy for the development of social entrepreneurship to the strategy for the development of social economy that is becoming a 10-year strategy. The period extends from four to ten years, because of the estimation that social economy is still in the initial development phase and the movements are taking place more slowly, so a longer time for change in this area is needed. The strategic document is therefore planned for a longer period, while a more concrete program of measures will be prepared for shorter periods of 2 years.
Other changes are also being made for example simplifying yearly reports for social enterprises, elimination of the upper limit of wages for people working in social enterprises, volunteer work that is not mandatory anymore but still possible, and some other.
The future challenges we are facing in Slovenia in the field of social enonomy are, firstly, to further provide a strong political support to develop the sector with the elections approaching in mid 2018, secondly to successfully implement the initiatives, actions and measures to increase the visibility of social eneterprises, to increase knowledge and capacity building of different stakeholders on the rationalle of social economy – where the implementation of Satellite Accounts would be of great importance to show the contribution of the social economy to the development of a sustainable and inclusive growth.
I believe that visibility and relevance of social economy can be very much increased with the existance of national statistics that can show the contribution of social economy to the major economic indicators.
Therefore we support the conclusions of the European Council, Luxemburg and Madrid declarations that call uppon the implementation of satellite accouns in EU countries and following commonly accepted international models by doing that. Since the UNs Handbook „Satellite accounts on nonprofit and related institutions and volunteer work „ that has been worked out over three years, has been subjected to multiple international reviews, is comprehensive and fully aligned with the System of National Accounts, we believe that it is important to start discussing implementation, timeframe and budget of satellite accounts as soon as possible.
