The aim of this paper is to analyse common location patterns of Software and Videogames
(SVE) industry in Barcelona, Lyon and Hamburg. This is a key industry in developed
countries that mainly located at core of bigger metropolitan areas, looking for agglomeration
economies, skilled labour and a wide range of spillover effects existent there. Cities used in
our empirical application share some common features in terms of size, manufacturing
tradition and, specially, economic strategies, as they have managed to promote high-tech
neighbourhoods through ambitious urban renewal policies. When analysing location patterns
of firms from these industries, although our results highlight predominant role of urban
cores of three cities, also indicate important specificities in terms of core-periphery.
distribution of SVE’s firms.
