呼唤南城文创园区大发展

如果没有产业的腾飞,南城的发展终将是一句空话。南城丰厚的文化资源如何转化为产业资源,集聚区的建设和发展无疑将是助推剂和突破口"十二五"期间,北京提出要在发挥国家文化中心职能、加强首都文化建设上大有作为。其中,特别提出"要注意保护好历史文化名城,打造首都历史文化品牌,展示首都历史文化的魅力。"这让人不禁联想起承载着厚重历史底蕴的北京南城。与北部的奥运功能区、东部的CBD相比而言,北京南城文化创意产业集聚区仍"稍逊     

首都航空极离我们多远？

近期,京津冀航空产业与临空经济发展迎来两件大事,一是中国民航局开展京津冀民航运输协同发展的相关研究,二是作为北京市六大高端产业功能区之一的北京临空经济核心区在顺义揭牌成立。这两件由民航局与地方政府两大系统、从两个方向推动的看似关联不大的事件,虽然没有把目前社会各界对于北京新机场的关注度完全吸引过来,但此举正是各方加强协调,合力创建首都航空极的关键举措。     

版权保险制度：内在原理、国别经验及发展路径

版权保险是保险和版权制度的有机融合，有助于降低版权的市场交易成本，推动版权经济价值的实现，防范和化解版权创意企业的运营风险。本文立足于国际、国内两个视角，探讨版权保险的发展现状和特点，从多个维度分析域外版权保险制度实践的有益经验，以期为我国版权保险制度发展提供参考。我国版权保险制度发展仍存在立法支持体系有待健全、版权价值评估体系不完善、统一性的版权登记服务平台缺失等问题。基于此，我国版权保险发展应遵循“内外兼修”的完善思路，在我国版权保险实践的现实基础上进一步推进版权保险的专门性立法、创新“政府引导+市场主导”的版权保险运作模式、完善版权保险价值评估体系、构建统一性的版权登记服务平台，以优化我国的版权保险制度。     

严格评定确保集聚区“含金量”

如学者所言：来自市场和政策的双重推动力量让北京文化创意产业步入了快车道。从北京确立“发展文化创意产业、打造创意之都”发展战略,到出台一系列相关政策和设立专项基金进行支持,文化创意产业在首都找到了一片非常广阔的发展空间。如今,以集聚形势培育发展的文化创意产业,正在成为北京经济发展的重要支柱和最活跃、最具增长潜质的产业,集聚区这一形势也正在被社会各届重视和认可。“集聚区是谁评定的？是怎么评出来的？评选的过程是否公开、公平、公正？对集聚区的评定如何体现政府决策的科学性？”,     

建设版权交易中心 提高首都文化创意产业核心竞争力——访北京市版权局副局长王野霏

每年中国都有大量的文化创意产品面世,但真正走向市场的不到三分之一,走向市场后能盈利的不到五分之一交易不畅已经成为制约版权产业发展的瓶颈建设版权交易中心,可以很大程度地改变目前我国版权贸易落后的局面《投资北京》:请问目前国际上对版权产业是怎样界定的?版权产业链主要包括哪几部分?王野霏:世界知识产权组织以及美国等国家把文化创意产业也称作版权产业     

南部现代制造业新区“1＋1〉2”

5月末6月初，第二十二届北京大兴西瓜节如约而至。今年瓜节与往年最大的不同，是紧紧围绕着大兴区和北京经济技术开发区行政资源整合，建设北京南部现代制造业新区这一新机遇，做足“产业发展”大文章，瓜节成为两区融合后首次集体亮相的重点招商项目推介平台。     

房山:宜居特点突显

政府投资是一只"看得见的手",这只手的指向对区域经济的影响是非常明显的。房山区是北京的郊区县之一,近年来,受"两大转移,五个倾斜"政策的带动,这一区域正在成为北京的另一宜居区域。在北京东西南北郊区化住宅遍地开花的情势下,惟独一块区域给人的印象一直是寂寞无声,这就是北京西南方向的房山区。房山虽然像其他郊区化住宅一样,也依傍着一条高速路--京石高速,在交通距离上并不比其他北京郊区项     

斋堂沟域三变成“蝶”

斋堂的故事在北京家喻户晓。作为北京最早探索沟域经济的山区,无论是发展的理念还是社会资本参与建设的成效,斋堂都算得上是北京沟域经济发展的成功案例之一。斋堂是北京重点建设的小城镇,也是北京山区七个核心重点镇之一,又是北京山区旅游带上的重要节点。     

小蘑菇也能做出大文章

人多地少,这是北京发展农业必须正视的事实。和农业大省相比,北京没有沃野千里的资源优势,但却拥有得天独厚的科技优势:地界上有25家中央在京农业科研单位,11个国家重点农业实验室,44家市农业科研单位和2万多农业科技人员,每年诞生的农业科研成果不计其数。如何近水楼台先得月,找出自身发展现代农业的出路?多年来,北京的各个郊区县都在积极探索。8月27日-30日,来自联合国粮农组织、世界银行等国际组织代表,各国食用菌方面的科学     

服务外包“北京板块”隐现

我国服务外包产业首现万人企业。 不久前,文思创新、软通动力两家北京服务外包企业成为国内首批达到＂万人规模＂的服务外包企业,这也标志着北京的服务外包产业迈上了一个颇具里程碑意义的新台阶。     

教育与资本怎样的前景怎样的现实

来自政府的声音: "动员各种社会资源,发展教育" 此次论坛上财政部长助理张少春的发言是最受关注的发言之一.他的演讲传达出的信息有这样几方面:第一,谈到现实,他认为全社会对教育的巨大需求与我国公共投入不足已成为我国教育事业发展的突出矛盾.近年来,以公共部门投入为主,多渠道筹措教育经费的教育投入机制成为解决这一问题的重要途径,也使得公共部门与私营部门在教育领域的合作日益密切.第二,谈到前景,他认为,1.中国经济持续、快速的增长对高技能人才产生巨大的需求,这为私营部门的参与提供了广阔空间.2.随着公共财政职能的不断完善,财政资金将在各项教育事业中重新进行分配,进一步优化财政支出结构,提高资金的使用效率.在"十一五"期间,我国将把公共支出的重点转移到农村.我们将逐步把全体农村适龄儿童的义务教育全部纳入公共财政体制.     

Debt and Taxes and Uncertainty

With a graduated personal tax schedule, Miller showed that there could be an equilibrium debt supply for the corporate sector as a whole. In the presence of uncertainty there is also a unique debt/equity ratio for each individual firm, and this ratio is related to the firm's operational risk characteristics. However, if firms merge and spin off in response to tax incentives, the identity of firms is ambiguous and only the corporate sector is a meaningful construct. These arguments are developed in both discrete and continuous models that employ extensions of the arbitrage-free pricing theory.     

East and west and north and south : A preliminary model

The Brandt report and other proposals for a new North-South world order continue to be the focus of lively debate, yet it is often argued that little concrete has emerged from their recommendations. A major reason for this, the author argues, is that the East-West conflict component is not sufficiently taken into consideration-East-West tensions are a severe constraint on and a determining factor of North-South relations. Using influence diagrams, the author develops a flexible framework for discussion and assessment of N/S-E/W relations.     

Director gender and mergers and acquisitions

Does director gender influence CEO empire building? Does it affect the bid premium paid for target firms? Less overconfident female directors less overestimate merger gains. As a result, firms with female directors are less likely to make acquisitions and if they do, pay lower bid premia. Using acquisition bids by S&P 1500 companies during 1997–2009 we find that each additional female director is associated with 7.6% fewer bids, and each additional female director on a bidder board reduces the bid premium paid by 15.4%. Our findings support the notion that female directors help create shareholder value through their influence on acquisition decisions. We also discuss other possible interpretations of our findings.     

Political corruption and mergers and acquisitions

This research examines the relation between political corruption and mergers and acquisitions (M&As). We find that local corruption increases firm acquisitiveness but decreases firm targetiveness. The levels of corruption in acquirer areas relate positively to the bid premiums and negatively to the likelihood of deal completion. Corruption motivates acquiring firms to use excess cash for payment, which mitigates the negative effect of corruption on acquirer shareholder value. The evidence indicates that acquisitions help acquiring firms convert cash into hard-to-extract assets and relocate assets from the high to low corruption areas, thereby shielding their liquid assets from expropriation by local officials.     

Tournament-based incentives and mergers and acquisitions

This research examines the relation between tournament-based incentives, which are proxied by the difference between a firm's CEO pay and the median pay of the senior managers, and mergers and acquisitions (M&As). We find that tournament-based incentives are positively related to firm acquisitiveness and acquiring firms' stock and operating performance. Further analysis indicates that positive acquisition performance increases the likelihood of the CEO being promoted from inside the acquiring firm. Our evidence is consistent with the view that tournament-based incentives motivate acquiring firms' managers to make greater efforts and take more risk that result in superior acquisition performance.     

Corporate Innovations and Mergers and Acquisitions

Using a large and unique patent‐merger data set over the period 1984 to 2006, we show that companies with large patent portfolios and low R&D expenses are acquirers, while companies with high R&D expenses and slow growth in patent output are targets. Further, technological overlap between firm pairs has a positive effect on transaction incidence, and this effect is reduced for firm pairs that overlap in product markets. We also show that acquirers with prior technological linkage to their target firms produce more patents afterwards. We conclude that synergies obtained from combining innovation capabilities are important drivers of acquisitions.
