Analyzing shared mobility markets in Europe: A comparative analysis of shared mobility schemes across 311 European cities
The progression of shared mobility across Europe is remarkable. While station-based car and bike sharing have a more extended history, particularly in major European (capital) cities, recent advancements in modal types and operational models have significantly transformed the shared mobility landscape. Rapid expansion by private organisations has broadened access to shared mobility services across Europe. However, not all European cities are cons…
Regional retail landscapes emerging from spatial network analysis
In the tradition of Christaller’s central place theory, policy and scientific studies delineate retail markets around predefined central places. Evolutions on the demand and supply side have changed where consumers shop and where stores are located. We use spatial network analysis techniques (Leiden detection algorithm) that allow for a bottom-up approach. The data were sourced from a questionnaire on shopping in Flanders (Belgium). The results s…
The sustainability of the urban layer of e-commerce deliveries: The Belgian collection and delivery point networks
The increase in at-home deliveries of online ordered goods has led to a rise in urban logistics facilities. One such facility in particular, the collection and delivery point (CDP), is an increasingly popular delivery option amongst carriers and holds the promise of more sustainable e-commerce logistics. A prerequisite to achieve this promise is that the pick-up trip occurs in an environmentally friendly manner. By delineating 1 km catchment area…
Returning the particular: Understanding hierarchies in the Belgian logistics system
Housing preferences among students: Collective housing versus individual accommodations? A stated preference study in Antwerp (Belgium)
Venture capital: The effect of local and global social ties on firm performance
Firm financing literature has been dominated by a relatively ‘undersocialized’ and ‘aspatial’ view. We approach this gap by applying a social capital and economic geography informed lens to financial transactions. We explore if and how the early growth performance of venture capital backed organizations varies with the structural and physical location of their investors in syndication networks. Drawing on longitudinal data of Belgian firms and th…
Location of logistics companies: A stated preference study to disentangle the impact of accessibility
What determines carpooling to workplaces in Belgium: Location, organisation, or promotion
What location policy can bring to sustainable commuting: An empirical study in Brussels and Flanders, Belgium
Children and Housing: 'Only the Best is Good Enough
The main objective of any housing policy is to provide everyone (adults and children) with a good-quality dwelling and housing environment. In Belgium, following the ratification of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, children and youngsters are now considered a separate target group in housing policy formation. However, little is known about the housing situation and desires of these young people. To fill this knowledge gap, the govern…
Accessibility to freight transport networks in Belgium: A geographical approach
This paper focuses on the role of transportation infrastructure in freight accessibility from a sustainable and multi‐modal perspective. Several accessibility measures are applied separately yet simultaneously to water, rail and road transportation systems. It appears that the transportation system is structuring the Belgian space geographically and topographically (inertia of space due to transportation infrastructure), but that economic activit…
The impact of planning and infrastructure measures on rush hour congestion in Antwerp, Belgium
Small and Medium‐sized Enterprises in the Antwerp‐brussels Axis
The results of interdisciplinary research in which data and techniques of accounting are combined with theories in the field of economic geography are presented. The investigation tests the validity of some theories of economic geography on the basis of financial statement data. Up till now these theories have only been tested empirically with the use of macro‐economic data, such as employment figures. In this project, the performances of small a…
