US-Europe Innovation Corridors: Capturing Growth Through International Collaboration

Coming soon: our new research report shows how to design and deliver International Innovation Corridors, identifying high-potential matches between US metros and European city-regions.

Built on a new innovation benchmarking methodology with commercialisation at its core, the report looks beyond traditional “push” measures (research intensity, publications, patents, grants) to assess the “pull” of market demand—revealed through start-up activity, venture capital investment, and foreign direct investment.

Methodology

• Benchmarks innovation and research commercialisation across 35 US metropolitan areas and 35 European city-regions
• Covers seven technology areas: AI & Tech, Advanced Connectivity, Defence, Space, Renewable Energy, Battery Technology, and Future Energy Systems
• Applies multi-dimensional modelling that combines quantitative business metrics with strategic investment indicators
• Uses indicators including start-ups, venture capital (deal count and value), FDI (capital value and jobs created), and regional economic and demographic fundamentals.

What to expect in the report

• A roadmap for developing International Innovation Corridors, grounded in OCO Global’s delivery experience.
• Data analysis of innovation ecosystems in the US and Europe.
• Examples of best-fit corridor matches by technology and corridor type (thematic, complementary, niche and more)
