  • 2010/15: Is agglomeration taxable?

    Jordi Jofre-Monseny

    Several theoretical papers that examine tax competition with agglomeration effects have stressed the possibility that the governments of jurisdictions in which economic activity is concentrated may tax firms more heavily (taxable agglomeration rents). In this paper, we examine the tax rate setting decisions taken with regard to the Spanish municipal...

    2010/13: Which firms want PhDs? The effect of the university-industry relationship on the PhD labour market

    José García-Quevedo, Francisco Mas-Verdú, Jose Polo-Otero

    PhD graduates hold the highest education degree, are trained to conduct research and can be considered a key element in the creation, commercialization and diffusion of innovations. The impact of PhDs on innovation and economic development takes place through several channels such as the accumulation of scientific capital stock, the...

    2010/12: Venture capital and innovation at the firm level

    Pere Arqué Castells

    This paper studies the relationship between venture capital (VC) and innovation using a self-collected dataset containing 119 innovative, VC-funded firms and 164,486 controls that operate in Spain. Probit model estimates indicate that firms that have applied for at least one patent are significantly more likely to obtain VC investments. However,...

    2009/38: Can a knowledge-based cluster be created? The case of the Barcelona 22@district

    Josep M. Arauzo Carod, Elisabet Viladecans Marsal

    The aim of this paper is to track the location decisions of knowledge-intense firms in a redeveloped urban district in the city of Barcelona in which government policy has promoted the formation of a cluster of knowledge-based activities. After decades of economic and industrial stagnation in a district called Poblenou,...

    2009/31: Economic incongruities in the European patent system

    Malwina Mejer, Bruno van Pottelsberghe de la Potterie

    This article argues that the consequences of the ‘fragmentation’ of the European patent system are more dramatic than the mere prohibitive costs of maintaining a patent in force in many jurisdictions. The prevalence of national jurisdictions, which are highly heterogeneous in their costs and practices, over the validity and enforcement...

    2009/18: Competition for FDI with vintage investment and agglomeration advantages

    Kai A. Konrad, Dan Kovenock

    Countries compete for new FDI investment, whereas stocks of FDI generate agglomeration benefits and are potentially subject to extortionary taxation. We study the interaction between these aspects in a simple vintage capital framework with discrete time and an infinite horizon, focussing on Markov perfect equilibrium. We show that the equilibrium...
