WHAT IS THE SOCIOECONOMIC CONTRIBUTION OF THE COMPANIES ADERLY SUPPORTS?

Aderly, the economic development agency working for the Lyon – Saint-Étienne metropolitan area (AMELYSE), strengthens its initiative for the 3rd time to better measure the local footprint of the companies supported in their setup over the last 10 years, by modelling their economic impact using LOCAL FOOTPRINT®, an economic modelling tool designed by UTOPIES.

This study analyzes the impact of Aderly’s strategy backed by highly detailed sectoral and
geographical dimensions both on local (AMELYSE) and national levels.

These results must be read through Aderly’s new FDI focus, targeting investments with positive impacts, fostering local rooting, economic resilience and contribution to its territory.

WHAT ARE THE MAIN FLOWS GENERATED BY THE COMPANIES SET UP BY ADERLY?

STUDY METHODOLOGY

The study quantifies the main socioeconomic impacts generated by activities run by Aderly-supported companies based on (1) the number of direct jobs created by the 558 companies benefiting from Aderly’s services between January 2011 and December 2020, representing 10 years of activities, and still active in 2022, and on (2) the OpenData from INSEE, and the SIRENE/ESANE database.

MODELLING OF THEIR ECONOMIC ACTIVITIES IN 2022

The very large size of the sample of companies enabled the use of the LOCAL FOOTPRINT®** tool across 380 sectors to model the main monetary flows in Aderly’s activity based on sectoral and local statistics (production, added value, purchasing, wages and fiscal revenues).

2 130 m

of total revenues, 32% of which involves foreign-capital owned companies

2020 data: €1,775m, of which 32% generated by companies with foreign capita

955 m

of Added Value in AMELYSE, equalling to the value of production minus intermediate consumption

2020 data: €775m

 

685 m

of gross wages, paid in AMELYSE

2020 data: €565m

920 m

of procurement, almost 75% in AMELYSE

2020 data: €830m, of which 72% in AMELYSE

64 m

of taxes

2020 data: €54m

COMPARING ANNUAL INDICATORS OVER 10 YEARS OF ACTIVITY

tableauanglais_indicator
The data on supported jobs, procurement, wages and taxes were computed based on a slightly different direct jobs data than 12,121, due to latest updates on direct jobs.

KEY FINDINGS

  • The increase of direct jobs created locally, while the number of actives supported companies slightly decreases, illustrates their greater sustainability on our territory.
  • The ratio of yearly locally net-created jobs (in the AMELYSE) by the companies supported by Aderly stays high, over 10%.
  • The multiplying factor on jobs decreases between the 2 periods; it may reflect a higher added-value of the direct created jobs by the supported companies.

PRESENTATION OF THE LOCAL FOOTPRINT® TOOL

A RIMS (Regional Input–Output Multipliers)-type statistical tool for evaluating socioeconomic impact, this leading model aggregates several geographical and sectoral analysis modules as well as “Input–Output” tables. It reproduces the operation of a regional economy as realistically as possible and draws on a variety of sources: statistical data from Eurostat, INSEE and BEA with details of 380 sectors, local calibration to the specific features of the area being analysed (INSEE employment data for specific activity sectors) and location quotients (University of the West of England, Bristol).

This model and its results have been audited and peer-reviewed several times since 2013 by private and public institutions (INSEE, EY, KPMG etc.) over a wide range of missions in France and abroad. Since 2013, it has been used in around 400 impact studies in all sectors (infrastructure, industry, energy, banking etc.) and all types of geographical areas (municipality, region, country, world) for both socioeconomic and environmental research.

 

This study was carried out in 2022 by the Impact team at UTOPIES, a pioneering consultancy firm in the field of sustainable development strategy created in 1993.
