Neighboring Regions Benefit from Tourism Productivity Boost through Agglomeration Economies
The scientists looked into how clusters of tourism businesses can affect their productivity in the UK. They studied data to see how being near other tourism places impacts how well they do. The study found that being in a bustling area can boost one place’s productivity. Yet, being close to other thriving tourist spots can also help nearby ones do better, suggesting they might catch up in performance. The findings suggest that working near other tourism spots can either help or hurt productivity.
