Helping businesses unlock and evidence their wider economic and social influence
Unlock your organisation’s influence by measuring, understanding and communicating the value it creates, enhancing strategy, reputation and stakeholder engagement.
Overview
Every business shapes the economy and society in powerful ways, creating jobs, supporting supply chains, fostering innovation and driving regional growth. Understanding and communicating this full value is essential to demonstrate purpose, inform strategy and strengthen stakeholder relationships.
Oxford Economics helps organisations uncover and articulate this influence with credibility. With decades of experience delivering rigorous economic and social impact assessments for global businesses, we provide trusted evidence that underpins policy engagement and reputation-building.
Our Business Economic Impact Calculator (BEIC) is an accessible entry point to this broader analysis. It quantifies your organisation’s core economic footprint, employment, value added (GVA) and tax contributions, while establishing the foundation for deeper, bespoke studies of social, environmental and international impact.
