What is Cambridge Model 2?

The Cambridge Model is an economic impact analysis model that has been estimating the volume and value of tourism in a district, county, or region for over 30 years.

It combines data from a number of sources to calculate the value and volume of tourism, focusing on the direct, indirect, and induced impacts of tourism on the local economy.

THE KEY COMPONENTS:

🧑‍🤝‍🧑Visitor Numbers: Annual volume of day visitors and domestic and overseas staying visitors, by purpose of trip and type of accommodation used.
💳Visitor Spend: Average expenditure per visitor, categorised by different types of visitors (day visitors, overnight visitors, international visitors). ​
🔄Economic Multiplier: Impact of secondary spending on different sectors as spending circulates through the local economy.​
💼Employment Impact: Number of jobs generated or supported by visitor spending

The new Cambridge Model 2, developed by TSE Research builds upon the original and means that calculations and formulas used have been updated and more metrics modern integrated to ensure its calculations are as up-to-date as possible.
