Industrial Strategy | Cambridge Econometrics

Informing Resilient Industrial Strategies

Global megatrends – such as digitalisation and AI, the decarbonisation of our economies and aging societies – are transforming our industries and creating new opportunities and drivers of economic growth.

As the world evolves, it’s essential to understand how these megatrends, and the emergence and evolution of new technologies, alter how different parts of the economy will develop. We also need to recognise how private enterprise and public policymakers can take relevant actions to sustain and grow key sectors and supply chains.

Our expertise has supported the development of industrial strategies across the world. It’s helped model the future evolution of economies to understand which sectors will grow rapidly and which need greater support. And it’s contributed to the design, and understanding of the impact of interventions, to help policymakers ensure competitiveness in key strategic sectors.
