Abstract

Economic and industrial clusters have become in the last years the object of a new economic theory that has proved important for regional and even national (Porter, 1990) development. The papers objective is to emphasize the particularities of IT clusters, especially their characteristics that are derived from the special features of this type of technological clusters. IT clusters represent an important type of technology clusters and at global view they represent most successful and efficient examples of clusters. The paper describes the characteristics that are behind the creation, the continuous development and the success of the IT cluster and aims to emphasize those particular features which define an IT cluster and separate it from another type of industrial cluster. In order to emphasize the importance factors, there are described different types of IT clusters.
