- Has your city conducted an economic impact assessment of its nighttime economic activity?
- Where do you even begin to determine what “x” is equal to in the formula NTE=x?

Takeaways
During this hour, you will learn how a nighttime and cultural economic impact study can boost:
- Decision-making
Economic impact studies provide decision-makers with vital information to make informed choices about the viability of projects, policies, and programs. The study helps to evaluate the potential costs and benefits of the project, and the likelihood of success.
- Resource allocation
Economic impact studies assist in the allocation of scarce resources by providing evidence-based insights into the economic value of a project or policy. This helps to prioritize and direct resources where they are most needed.
- Risk management
Economic impact studies help to identify potential risks and opportunities associated with a project, policy, or program, and assess their impact on the economy. This allows decision-makers to respond appropriately to mitigate the risks and leverage the opportunities.
- Community engagement
Economic impact studies can engage the public and other stakeholders in the decision-making process. The study helps to promote transparency and accountability, as stakeholders can evaluate the project’s potential impact and provide feedback.
