Economic Impact Studies

​

Our economic impact studies help destinations and businesses understand the volume, value, and financial contribution of visitor activities. With the launch of the enhanced Cambridge Model 2, we offer more detailed insights, incorporating modern metrics and short-stay letting intelligence for more accurate analysis of tourism’s economic impact.

We provide bespoke policy research to help local authorities and government agencies understand the impact of tourism and develop effective strategies. This can include evaluating the effects of specific circumstances like natural disasters or COVID-19, as well as broader studies such as market sector research, industry audits, and economic evaluations.

We support local authorities by researching the impact of tourism on local economies. This research is essential for decision-making, inward investment, and community awareness. Methods we use include marketing evaluation, destination audits, business performance studies, and more.
