Dear Colleague,  

4^th ERSA Workshop

2013 Barcelona Workshop on Regional and Urban Economics:

Agglomeration Economies

November 28^th-29^th 2013, Faculty of Economics and Business, University of Barcelona,

AQR-IREA hosted the Workshop on Agglomeration Economies on November 28th-29th 2013 in Barcelona. During two days we had cutting-edge research papers focused on agglomeration economies presented by both Senior and Young researchers. Some 50 scholars and policy makers attended the workshop, which was also an ERSA activity (4^th International Workshop).

The Workshop, which was opened by the Dean of the Faculty of Economics and Business of University of Barcelona, Elisenda Paluzie, started with the presentation of the 2013 Keynote Speaker, Mark Partridge (Ohio State University), who summarised new knowledge on agglomeration economies from a policy perspective.
