  2. Why an Institute for research? Lack of co-ordination in the research activity and R&D results did not meet the society needs IMPROVE CO-ORDINATION AND APPLICABILITY

  3. General objective Promote a flexible and high academic level research platform for the international economic research

  4. Concrete Objectives • Respond to the demand for the most applied research, coming from both the public and private sectors • Integrate projects linked to institutional and entrepreneur initiatives at the national/regional and European/international level. • Provide an analytical and methodological perspective in accordance with the principles of academic excellence.

  5. Organization Research Centre in economy: • 3 universities • 8 economic areas • 5 departments • 50 researchers(around 30 are from the University of Valencia)

  6. Research Areas • Environmental economy • New Technologies • Marketing Research • Tourism research • Transport & Logistcs • International Trade • Macroeconomic Research & current economic environment • Finanacial & mathematical modelling

  7. Environmental economy • Specialised in socio-economic valuation and analysis applied to natural resource management and associated infrastructure. • mainly focuses on the economic valuation of environmental and public goods • European Project VPM “Aquarec”: Integrated Concepts for Reuse of UpgradedWastewater • http://www.aquarec.org/

  8. Web pages for local administrations, tourist companies, cultural entities and academic activities. Curses on New technologies applied to entrepreneur associations Management experience in European IST projects ( 5FP, 6FP, Interreg III, eContent, eTen). New technologies

  9. Research in marketing covers all aspects related to commercialisation and market research, but focuses more concretely on three extensive areas of research:  Marketing channels International marketing Consumer satisfaction Marketing

  10. Aspects on tourism quality Tourism policy related to employment, training and education Sustainble development and tourism impacts R+D+i in the tourism sector Involment in international tourism networks Tourism Research

  11. Covers a wide range of aspects related to maritime and land transport: Price-fixing systems Measures to foster rail transport and shortsea shipping Logistic competitivity of the Valencian productivity sectors Transport & logistic

  12. Transporte y logística Example of cooperation between the University and entrepeneur sector Joint lines of research between the IEI and Valenciaport

  13. Study on socio-economic impacts of Port of Valencia (1997), Sagunto (1999), Castellón (2001) and Bilbao (2002). Studies for the Valencia Port: commercial flows, expansion, logistic competitivity, port activity and intermodality.

Macroeconomic Analysis

  16. The IEI co-ordinatesThe Observatory of International Economic Environment (www.iei-ocei.es) focused in the analysis and dissemination of the major economic indicators at the international level Economic current environment

  17. Study and play mathematical tools to problems coming from the capture and usage of funds for business activity Modelling both static and dynamic Economic-financial problems Applying mathematical programming techniques to different types of problems: efficiency studies, tariff fixing, etc. Applying mathematical methods to valuation problems, considering the real options for solving the problem, etc. Matehematical Modelling

  18. Results • El IEI involves around 50 reserchers from the Valencian Universities • It has defined diffferent research areas and created stable research teams • Relevant links with other Universities and intitutions at the national an international level.

  19. International Networks Forum Euro-Mediterranéen des Instituts Économiques The town as promoter of economic development NEFERTITI NEtwork For Examining Regional Transport Integration and Transcontinental Interoperability
