Competitive Advantage in the Digital Economy (CADE)

The Centre for Competitive Advantage in the Global Economy (CAGE), was set up in 2009, funded from Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) grants. The CAGE research centre is based at the University of Warwick's Department of Economics. In 2014 CAGE organised the Competitive Advantage in the Digital Economy Vacation School. The University of Warwick's manufacturing and industrial research and education group, WMG, engaged with CADE from the start. The 4th CADE saw it come under WMG's Service Ecosystems group as it became a forum, and WMG has been heavily involved in the subsequent CADEs, now helping to organise it as an annual conference.
