I'm moving this article to "Cluster development" as the more common Google term, keeping "Cluster initiative" just as a redirect. And similarly I'm moving "Porter's cluster" to "Business cluster". --Mereda 13:23, 8 August 2006 (UTC)Reply

This page needs a rewrite/restatement, as I cannot understand what clusters and Economic clusters are just by reading the text. The article tries to explain it by one or two sentences and then goes on to talk about how many governments went on using clusters. But why/for what? --SkyHiRider (talk) 21:54, 15 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Industrial Clusters in China[1]

The development of industrial clusters in China has become a subject of international interest, but attention has primarily focused on government efforts to attract FDI to promote industrial clusters and regional development. The local process which supports the rise and growth of clusters driven by the domestic firms has been relatively ignored in this debate. Thus, this article considers the analytical framework of strategic coupling and uses a case study of the Wuxi semiconductor industry to investigate the cluster formation, dynamics and effects driven by domestic, rather than FDI, firms with the mediating role of the transnational Chinese technical community, the state and domestic firms. It concludes that the rise and growth of the semiconductor domestic-led cluster in Wuxi is not dependent on FDI, but instead results from the dynamic interplay of several elements. Effects of technology spillover from the government-funded research institutions, as well as mutual competition and co-operation in technological emulation among domestic firms are important elements for the development of the domestic-led cluster. Moreover, all these elements lie within the strategic coupling of the regional assets and the transnational Chinese technical community, mediated by the state. It is the the state that has mobilised regional assets to negotiate with overseas technology talent for strengthening global linkages and facilitating the entrepreneurial knowledge absorption of domestic leading firms—a feature which has not been theoretically observed in Western countries.

Clusters increases productivity with which companies can compete.[1]The competition in the cluster let the companies use strategies and innovate through application of new technologies to become highly competitive. One of the most known cluster is the Silicon Valley. The Components that made up the success of the Silicon Valley are the universities, government, entrepreneurs, venture capital, mature corporations, industrial research centers and service providers.[2] These components, to have a competitive industry, organizations must determine the internal strength, take advantage of it and develop it. The growth and development of the economy could be dependent in cluster development. Thailand determined five future industries which are Robotics, Aviation and Logistics, Medical Hub, Biofuels and Biochemicals and Digital industry.[3] These industries were from their current industries. Their plan to develop new industries from their existing industries were based from developing their internal strength and the components around their industries to enhance global competitiveness.

Cluster Development in the Philippines

Cluster development in the Philippines is initiated by the government and development agencies. Examples of cluster developments in the Philippines is the Marikina shoe cluster[1] and the Metro Cebu furniture cluster[2].

Situated in Marikina City, Philippines, the Marikina shoe cluster is composed of small family-owned entrepreneurial firms that produce leather and synthetic material shoes. While it thrived until the early 1980s, Philippine economy liberalization made it vulnerable to foreign competition.[1] In 2021, only 60 out of the 3,000 registered shoe manufacturers remain open.[3]

The furniture cluster in Metro Cebu is composed of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that produce rattan and fine wood furniture.[4] The furniture cluster exported USD 281 million worth of products in 2004 with USA as the major export market.[2]

To create globally-competitive and innovative industries, the Philippine Development Plan 2011-2016 emphasized the development and promotion of industry clusters to drive inclusive growth and generate employment opportunities. This initiative came after the implementation of the Davao Industry Cluster Capacity Enhancement Project (DICCEP) for eight priority industry clusters in the Davao Region.[5] These eight industries were information and communication, technology, tourism, wood, banana, coconut, mango and seaweed.[6] The DICCEP won the Philippine National Economic and Development Agency (NEDA) Good Practice Awards in 2010. [7] [8] As a result, the National Industry Cluster Capacity Enhancement Project (NICCEP) was launched to replicate the DICCEP's success in other parts of the Philippines. The NICCEP targeted the following industries: bamboo, banana, coconut/coir, coffee, dairy, gifts/decors and housewares, health and wellness, ICT, mango, milkfish, mining, palm oil, poultry, rubber, seaweeds, tourism, tuna, wearables and homestyle, and wood.[9] The Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprise (MSME) Development Plan 2017-2022 has also indicated cluster development as part of its strategic goals.[10]

A recent initiative in cluster development is the Philippine Department of Agriculture's Farm and Fisheries Clustering Consolidation (F2C2) Program that was patterned according to farm movements in other countries such as South Korea's Saemaul Undong, Japan's Keizai Kosei Undo, and Israel's Kibbutzim. Farm clusters will be able to access credit financing through the Agricultural and Credit Council (ACPC) and education, training, and ICT related to production efficiency and management.[11]

Development agencies also participate in smallholder agricultural clusters often as part of their group training initiatives. While positive results have been observed in terms of increasing farmers' profits and access to support services, the failure rate remains high.[12]

In “The Competitive Advantage of Nations”, Michael Porter coined the term ‘cluster’ to explain the concept of ‘economic competitiveness’. This was the first time the term was used to identify the phenomenon.
