IFS contacts: Rachel Griffith and Laura Abramovsky Different industries and economic activities exhibit different patterns of geographic agglomeration. Investigating where economic activity takes place, and why, is relevant to understanding the economic composition and development of regions, the determinants of the price paid for production factors, goods and services in different regions, and the role for public policy in shaping agglomeration economies. IFS research in this area looks at firms' decisions over where to locate production and innovative activity in the UK and in other countries; the clustering of economic activity; and the role of public policy measures in firms' location decisions.
