An airport area is a strategic factor of regional
economic development
“The empirical results show that a 10 per cent increase in passenger
enplanements in a metro area leads approximately to a 1 per cent increase in
employment in service-related industries” (at regional level).
Jan K. Brueckner, economist

Airport Areas have become a strategic asset for
the regional economic development
Airport Areas have become regional economic accelerators to:
. global supply chains
. business people
. air passengers and airport-area visitors
. ….and as a result of that we are seeing:
. Rapid economic development around many major airports
. “Marketing and branding strategy”
Airport areas have become significant
employment, shopping, tourist, trading and
business destinations in their own right

largest airports in China. The Pudong
Airport free trade zone with a surface of
3.59km² (1.81km² inside and 1.78km²
outside the airport) was established in
2009. Priority sectors for the zone are:
international cargo transit, procurement
and distribution, international express
transit, repair and test, financing leasing,
warehousing, export processing,
commodity exhibition and its supporting
business finance insurance and agency”.

2 Main issues for Airport Areas regarding
Human resources
. Quantitative Issue. Airport Areas create a
large number of jobs and more and more
diverse professions.
. Qualitative Issue. Airport Areas face a
qualitative evolution of jobs. They have to
match at local level the needs of companies
with the qualification of the population.
Companies and local authorities have to
train people to help them to get new jobs.
Social inclusion is key in some Airport
Areas.
21. 21
4 Key Factors of success regarding Human
Resources
. Support local employment by increasing the number of
jobs that benefit the inhabitants of the Airport Areas.
Creating new opportunities for local inhabitants .
. “Find the right person, in the right job, with the right
skills, at the right time”. Workforce Development policies
are key factors of success
. Attract human resources: commuters, new inhabitants
and talents to the airport area. For non aeronautical
activities, companies look for talented workers.
. Create an attractive urban environment. Create
amenities that people and workers of Airport Areas like.
23. 23
Worforce is key for the future of Airport Areas
. Dr Stephen Appold and Dr John Kasarda : 3.1 million of jobs were
located in 2009 within a 2.5-mile radius around the 25 busiest
passenger airports in the US (2.8% of total US employment); over 7.5
million jobs within a five mile distance (6.8% of all US employees)
and 19 million jobs (17.2% of the US total) within 10 miles.
. Cape Town, South Africa, feb. 2016: thousands of new jobs can be
created in the development of an Aerotropolis surrounding Cape
Town International Airport. 3,000 jobs stand to be created by just
one regular scheduled long-haul service.
. Hamilton, Canada, Jan. 2015: the new developments will create
roughly 20 to 25 thousand jobs.
. Brisbane, Australia, 2015: the new developments of the airport will
create several thousands of jobs
Airport Areas don’t have enough local workforce to meet the needs
of businesses. How to find employees for the companies ?
24. 24
Invest in transportation to facilitate mobility
By 2030, the Greater Paris Express:
• 205 km of automatic metro lines;
• 68 new stations will connect the Grand Paris clusters with the three airports and
TGV stations;
• 2 million passengers will travel on this new network every day;
• Travel times will be significantly reduced, especially from suburb to suburb.
25. 25
Create bridges between the airport and your
Community : Hounslow (Greater London)
. 16,000 local residents are directly
or indirectly employed at Heathrow
Airport, predominantly in lower
skilled occupations.
. The Council cooperates with
Heathrow Airport and Heathrow
Academy
Objectives :
- diversify employment at the
airport for residents
- ensure residents can access
suitable training
26. 26
Social inclusion
. Airport Areas are very dynamic, but
. Some Airport Areas concentrate social
difficulties and depressed areas
. A high rate of residents don’t have
formal qualification or have different
qualifications from those sought by
companies
. In these SAA, the economic
development created by the Airport
Area fuels initiatives of social inclusion.
. According to the policy makers, it’s
key for Airport Areas global
competitiveness.
27. 27
Attract companies / people / workers in
renovated areas
27
. Public authorities finance a large number of
renovation projects and demolition of buildings.
. Public authorities also try to attract companies,
entrepreneurs and workers to these areas by
creating “Special Economic Zones” or attractive
“New redevelopment zones”
Example : Terre d’Avenir, in Sevran, a major
urban renewal and development project (120
hectares) with 2 new stations of the Greater
Paris Express.
Goal. Make the City a regional destination for:
. Business :
. Living.
. Sports & play.
Renovation : Aulnay sur Seine

Higher education is key to economic
development (but it's not as simple as you think)
• The widely adopted human capital view is that higher education
increases skill and knowledge and results in higher income.
• But the researchers behind a new study conducted in South
Africa say many more things need to be taken into
consideration: geography, sectors, available skills and education
systems and networks of companies are all important factors.
• Airport Areas need
1. professionals across all sectors – doctors, teachers and
engineers will be vital to our future success, and education
is central to producing those professionals.”
2. Professionals with capabilities dedicated to the sectors and
firms located in the Airport Area (today and in the future)

How to define yous strategy? Measure your
KSAOs Knowledge, skills, abilities and other characteristics
Identify the attributes - the KSAOs – of the active population of
your Airport Area :
- Knowledge: "A collection of discrete but related facts and
information about a particular domain...acquired through
formal education or training, or accumulated through specific
experiences.“
- Skill: "A practiced act".
- Ability: "The stable capacity to engage in a specific behavior“
- Other characteristics: "Personality variables, interests,
training, and experiences"
33. 33
Link your KSAOs analysis with your strategy
Match the attributes of your Airport Area with the needs (existing
and projected) of businesses.

A successful economic development strategy of an Airport Area
must focus on improving the knowledge, skills, abilities and key
others characteristics of the area's workforce
34. 34
What can you do in the strategic field?
Key aims of your strategy :
1. Clusters and Functions : support local employment growth and
enterprise through improving access to skills and reducing
mismatch between demand and supply
2. Improving all young people’s achievement and progression
into employment
3. Reinforcing pathways into work for the unemployed and
progression in work for low paid residents
4. Facilitating the access to information, advice and guidance and
labour market information
35. 35
What can you do in the operational field?
Examples of Activities :
• Developing shared responsibility for skills with partners – businesses, public
sector, voluntary sector, training providers, residents – and creating a local
commitment to moving people into work, and giving them opportunities to
progress in work
• Building strong and creative relationships between business and schools,
further education and higher education to support skills, innovation and
competitiveness
• Create relationships with the main companies/administrations and to
influence the way they recruit, retain and develop staff
• Develop local Job Forum
• Target new businesses which are looking for employees close to your Airport
Areas inhabitants competencies
• Help mobility of inhabitants from the places where they live in the AA to the
place where they can find a job
You have to put in place activities which will reinforce your
“workforce assets”

Create bridges between
Economic Development
& Employment
The French State, the Regional Council, Paris Airports
and some others players have created the GIP emploi
Roissy CDG, an association dedicated to reinforce
bridges between Companies, Education & Training
Policies and Social Inclusion.
To allow the inhabitants of Paris CDG Airport Area to
benefit from economic Development, the GIP is in
charge to :
• Anticipate needs of the companies
• Coordinate training session
• Associate stakeholders
• Facilitate the recruitment of marginalized
populations

How to attract commuters and new inhabitants ?
Airport Areas don’t have a very strong and positive reputation
among executives and qualified workers.
To attract these workers, the Airport Areas must put in place a
coordinated action plan :
- Change the reputation of the Airport Area and target specific
occupations sought by companies with the help of territorial
marketing
- Increase the accessibility from and to other sites in the urban
region
- Retain people who are already working in the Airport Area
- Offer opportunities to non-residential workers to find a place to
live with their family (create edge city such as Las Colinas close to
DFW)
40. 40
How to attract commuters and new inhabitants
by using a marketing / branding strategy ?
Create a public/private alliance to market the AA
Brand the Airport Area as a destination (create and reinforce
the reputation / image). Change the reputation : An Airport Area
is not only infrastructures!
Create and reinforce affinities between the AA and the targeted
clients
Create a Commercial funnel of conversion
Put in place a retention strategy
Use the social networks to disseminate a positive image (word-
of-mouth communication)
41. Key issue n°4 : Create amenities that people
and workers like
42. 42
Create amenities to attract new inhabitants and
workers
Airport Areas are rarely attractive to
workers. By creating places where people
feel good, they are more likely to want to
stay, to return and to tell others about the
experience. The differences between ‘just
a regular public space’ and a ‘great pubic
place’ can be viscerally felt by people – a
sense of welcome, of belonging, of
pleasure and of sharing.

Example. MUMBAI AIRPORT AREA is
targeteing functions to the local population
“The airport of Mumbai is inserted in a dense urban
fabric with very limited land availability, surrounded
by slums. The future development of the airport is
highly constraint and a new airport is envisaged
Navi Mumbai.
The airport city project has accurately analyzed
functions that are missing in the Mumbai airport
area. It currently proposes these missing functions
in a joint development program that includes a
large convention center, hotels, and upscale
offices, focused on companies but also functions
that are more targeted to the local population
including medium range hotels, hospitals,
services to residents and shops / businesses”.
