EU KLEMS
The EU KLEMS database provides measures of economic growth, productivity, employment creation, capital formation and technological change at the industry level for all European Union member states from 1970 onwards. The database provides an important input to policy evaluation, in particular for the assessment of the goals concerning competitiveness and economic growth potential as established by the Lisbon and Barcelona summit goals.

Original EU KLEMS project
The first EU KLEMS project ran from 2003 until 2008. It was funded by the European Commission, Research Directorate General as part of the 6th Framework Programme, Priority 8, "Policy Support and Anticipating Scientific and Technological Needs". The EU KLEMS Database can be used for analytical and policy-related purposes, in particular by studying the relationship between skill formation, technological progress and innovation on the one hand, and productivity, on the other. To facilitate this type of analysis a link will has been sought with existing micro (firm level) databases. The balance in academic, statistical and policy input in this project was realised by the participation of 15 organisations from across the EU, representing a mix of academic institutions and national economic policy research institutes and with the support from various statistical offices and the OECD.
Input measures include various categories of capital, labour, energy, material and service inputs. Productivity measures have been developed, using growth accounting techniques and several measures on knowledge creation have also been constructed. The original EU KLEMS project page has been archived and is no longer maintained. The datasets of various releases are now hosted on Dataverse.
