This paper analyses the potential for productivity spillovers from inward foreign direct investment using administrative panel data on firms for Hungary. We hypothesise that the potential for spillovers is related to observable characteristics of the production process of foreign affiliates, and evaluate this empirically. We further explore the role of competition in explaining productivity spillovers within industries. Our empirical analysis yields a number of important findings. First, we show that the potential for spillovers is importantly related to the production technology of the sectors and foreign affiliates. Firms that relocate labor-intensive activities to Hungary to exploit differences in labor costs are unlikely to generate productivity spillovers, while spillovers increase...

A recent exhibition at New York's Trygve lie Gallery featured the works - photography, painting, and mixed media - of six Danish artists, all living and working in New York. Their reasons varied for making the move over the Atlantic to the City of Bright Lights. "The city itself and a woman" lured Henrik Rehr over. Finn Fons was bored with what photography had to offer in Denmark and "fell in love with New York instantly" during a vacation. Per Brahe was invited to teach acting, and Tine Lundsfryd to study at the New York Studio School for Drawing, Painting and Sculpture. Whatever the reasons, there's little doubt New York has been a faithful muse to the entire group.
