WHAT WE DO
|
In a continued competitive funding environment only the most compelling propositions will secure investment. ekosgen’s approach is based on economic analysis, in-depth experience of appraisal methodology and an ability to present evidence in a way that meets the requirements of highly competitive funding streams such as ERDF, ESF and City and Growth Deal. From the point at which a project is conceived, this means extensive feasibility testing, options assessment, and the development of a robust business case and/or funding application that can stand the test of time. |

ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL IMPACT AND APPRAISAL Understanding the impact of interventions on beneficiaries and wider economic and social conditions plus the associated return to be generated on public investments is a core element of ekosgen’s work. Our commissions cover a range of intervention areas, including commercial property, infrastructure, tourism attractions, innovation facilities, business support schemes, and revenue initiatives such as training programmes. |
|
PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT AND EVALUATION Performance Measurement and Evaluation enables us to assess the effectiveness and impact of project and programme interventions at all stages of the policy cycle and has always been a cornerstone of our business. |
|
|
|
Using research to establish a robust and credible evidence base is a critical component of effective development strategies, and planning for growth. The economic fortunes of any area are not only dependent on the size and performance of its urban centres, rural areas and key industry sectors, but also its workforce, the quality of its environment, and its capacity for new development, population and housing. Consideration of socio-economic characteristics, skills, education and training, migration and commuter flows, and physical and digital connectivity helps us to better understand the dynamics at play. |
|
STRATEGY AND POLICY DEVELOPMENT ekosgen provides evidence-based strategy and policy development support to clients and consortia. Our work brings about lasting change by providing clear direction and action planning. We work at every spatial level, from national studies through to regions, local authority areas and cities, as well as in rural, sometimes remote parts of the UK. This is a core part of our offer, cutting across our team’s expertise in skills, sectors, places and communities. |
