The International Input-Output Association (IIOA) is a non-profit, scientific organisation founded in 1988. The IIOA today is a thriving, growing and influential organisation with over 630 members spanning 59 countries.

The objective of the IIOA is the advancement of knowledge in the field of Input-Output data compilation and analysis, including improvements in basic data, theoretical insights and modelling, and applications - traditional and novel - of Input-Output techniques. The IIOA delivers its core objectives by supporting young scholars, widening the awareness of the organisation, providing exchange of experience through our global annual IIOA Conference.

The global IIOA community brings together both producers (e.g. national statistical offices) of the statistics needed and the wide range of users, analysts and policy makers to advance knowledge on energy, environment, international trade, financial flows, price and general equilibrium analysis, ecological sustainability and well-being.

We welcome you to browse through the IIOA webpages, contact one of our Council Members, and to attend our annual conferences to learn more of the IIOA and its activities.

Forthcoming webinar

Presenter: Nicolò Golinucci
Title of presentation: Input-Output Analysis meets Python: a MARIO crash course

Date and time: Fri, 27-Sep-2024 15:00(CET)
Start in 6 days, 12 hours, 5 minutes

We are pleased to welcome you to the upcoming 16th IIOA Webinar scheduled for Friday, September 27th, 2024, from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM CET. We would like to extend our gratitude to Dr. Nicolò Golinucci for hosting this webinar entitled “Input-Output Analysis meets Python: a MARIO crash course”.

SHORT BIOGRAPHY & RESEARCH BACKGROUND
Dr. Nicolò Golinucci is a researcher and entrepreneur in the field of sustainability and industrial ecology. He holds a PhD in Energy and Nuclear Science and Technology from Politecnico di Milano, where his thesis focused on the role of industrial ecology in evaluating strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. During his doctoral studies with the SESAM group in the Department of Energy at Politecnico di Milano, Nicolò, along with colleagues Mohammad Amin Tahavori and Lorenzo Rinaldi, developed MARIO (Multifunction Analysis of Regions through Input-Output). MARIO is an open-source Python package designed to facilitate the use of input-output and supply-and-use tables in research. Currently, Nicolò is the administrator and senior researcher at eNextGen, a startup and spin-off from Politecnico di Milano. eNextGen provides sustainability services, with a particular focus on carbon footprinting, for companies looking to implement sustainable practices.

Abstract: The webinar aims to provide input-output researchers with the foundational knowledge to incorporate MARIO, an open-source Python software for input-output analysis, into their analytical framework, potentially enhancing research efficiency and expanding methodological options. The structure of the webinar includes:

Introduction (15 minutes): Overview of Python and existing packages for input-output analysis. Presentation of MARIO: origins, development, and key functionalities in the context of input-output analysis. Discussion on the advantages of open-source tools in academic research

Practical Demonstration (30 minutes): Step-by-step guide on MARIO usage, from basic Python setup to conducting an input-output analysis. Topics include software installation, data importation, analysis execution, and result interpretation.
