What Is a Cluster?
Clusters are geographic concentrations of interconnected companies and institutions in a particular field. Thus defines Michael Porter in his Harvard Business Review article “ Clusters and New Economics of Competition”
A Nation can prosper only if it has competence built into its citizens. Competition within the nation is mostly a zero sum game. For Nations to be identified as a potential source for goods and services, competence is a must. The Cluster concept provides for such platforms resulting in enhanced competence and amelioration of common issues that plague a particular sector through collective efficiencies. These collective efficiencies and agglomeration that the cluster can create needs to be handled by a catalytic agent and most times being the Government.
