EconLabGalicia and the Galician Institute for Economic Promotion (IGAPE) have signed a collaboration agreement to develop, throughout 2025, applied research focused on evaluating the public policies of financial incentives implemented by the Xunta de Galicia between 2019 and 2024.
The project's objective is to conduct applied research that will:
Propose a rigorous methodology for evaluating this type of public policy.
Analyze its effectiveness in the growth of Galician companies and the attraction of new investments.
Study the economic and industrial impact of these incentives on the community.
Compare the Galician experience with other regions in Spain, northern Portugal, and countries like France, Germany, Italy, and Poland.
Formulate evidence-based improvement proposals.
The research will be carried out by EconLabGalicia and includes dissemination activities for the results, such as holding a workshop with the economic sector and publishing a summary document with the main recommendations.
With this initiative, EconLabGalicia and IGAPE reinforce their commitment to the continuous improvement of public policies and to fostering sustainable, efficient, and evidence-based economic development.
