Theoretical background on clusters Sample Clauses

Theoretical background on clusters. Cluster are defined as a group of related industries operating in a given location by sharing common technologies, knowledge, inputs and cluster-specific institutions. Industries within a cluster benefit from complementarities (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. 2010; 2012). In such a broad area of studies, that crosses many disciplines and research domains, we address cluster theory through the lenses of strategic entrepreneurship, i.e., with a focus on entrepreneurial and innovation processes and entrepreneurial ecosystem with reference to competitiveness. More precisely, we work in three interrelated but distinct sub-topics.
