“…The coefficients of concentration (Marshallian specialization) are all significantly negative, suggesting that firms tend to grow at slower rates when they are locally concentrated; a result that is consistent with the findings of Rosenthal and Strange (2003b) and Drucker (2011Drucker ( , 2015. In almost all cases the coefficients of local competition and cross-industry diversity are significantly positive.…”

This study investigates the extent to which indicators of external scale economies impacted employment growth in Canada over the period 2004-2011. We focus on knowledge spillovers between firms while accounting for Marshallian specialization, Jacobs' diversity, and competition by industry, as well as related and unrelated firm varieties in terms of employment and sales. We find that the employment growth effects of local competition and diversity are positive, while the effect of Marshallian specialization is negative. Diversification is found to be particularly important for employment growth during the Global Financial Crisis and immediately thereafter.

The research addresses the issues of development the active mechanisms to manage the national economy sectors innovation development taking into account their pace of technological progress and resource potential proportionality. The study is based on the idea about relative importance of different sectors of the economy in innovation terms in the process of overall economic development. The main issues and cases of different economic models of emergence and diffusion of innovations and analytical support of innovation and technological changes management through the development of integrated development strategies were considered. As key component of improved multiplicative dynamic model of J. Tinbergen production function the parameter of technological progress, which reflects the level of innovation development of the national economy, was considered. Based on research results Tinbergen's production function equation for the Ukrainian industry was obtained. The equation obtained is reliable and statistically significant, as it is described by high statistical estimates.

Background: During the transformation of economy to a high-quality level in China, industrial restructuring and upgrading have played an important role. The upgrading of the industrial structure has affected not only the development in society and economy but also other fields, thereby having great impact on social security. In recent years, with the aging of the population and economic development, the social medical insurance fund is undertaking more payment pressure. However, the existing research rarely focuses on the impact of industrial structure upgrading on medical insurance. Objective: The main aim of this study was to analyze the impact of the upgrading of industrial structure on the income and expenditure of the urban employee basic medical insurance fund. Methods: China's provincial panel data from 2007 to 2018, collected by the National Bureau of Statistics of China, were used to establish a panel regression model in order to investigate the impact of the upgrading of the industrial structure on the income and expenditure of the urban employee basic medical insurance fund. Results: The research showed that the upgrading of the industrial structure, in combination with the internal upgrading in the tertiary industry, had a positive impact on the income and expenditure of the urban employee basic medical insurance fund and that there were regional differences. The simple upgrading of the three major industries had no effect on the income or expenditure of the urban employee basic medical insurance fund. In addition to the upgrading of industrial structure, other factors such as the average salary of employed persons in urban units, the proportion of retirees among all insured persons in urban employee basic medical insurance and the expenditure of urban employee basic medical insurance were also found to have impact on the income of urban employee basic medical insurance. Moreover, the expenditure of urban employee basic medical insurance was associated with the proportion of retirees among all insured persons in urban employee basic medical insurance, GDP and an aging population. Conclusion:In the context of the upgrading of the industrial structure, measures such as strengthening employment and income security, delaying retirement, adjusting birth policy, strengthening the scientific management of personal accounts and accurately positioning the regional industrial structure were suggested to be adopted in order to minimize the payment pressures on the urban employee basic medical insurance fund.
