Research Areas

The aim of this study is to quantify the impact of the activities related to Feria Valencia on the Valencian economy, in terms of production (sales), income (GDP) and employment. The report will analyze four different areas that generate this impact: a) direct activity; (b) visitor spending; (c) exhibitor spending; and d) exhibitor sales.

The study will consider three types of impacts: direct, indirect and induced. The economic impact in terms of production, income and employment is measured by using an input-output methodology based on the latest information from input-output tables available for Spain from the National Statistics Institute. An input-output table portrays the productive structure of an economy as it describes the inputs required by a sector from all the sectors to meet production.
