title: Google: Groningen's new boost? A research on the regional effects of the major capital injection by Google in Eemshaven
creator: Ruiken, C.P.H.
description: The province of Groningen recently has been fortunate to welcome a major capital investment. At the end of 2016 the American multinational technology company Google LLC announced to invest 600 million euro in a new data centre in Eemshaven, near Delfzijl in the north-east of Groningen. The aim of this research is to give insight in how a spatial microsimulation model could be carried out that investigates the regional economic effects of the capital injection by Google in Eemshaven. This research answers the central research question: “What are the economic effects of the capital injection by Google for the region of Groningen and how can therefore a spatial microsimulation model be designed?” The direct and indirect effects are investigated separately.
