Abstract

Success stories like Silicon Valley, Hollywood film industry or the economic region of Northern Italy brought into debate the role of clusters in regional development. What is a cluster? What drives organizations to build clusters or local and regional authorities to sustain such forms of spatial structure? Are clusters necessary in the new terms of globalization? These are questions actual for the Romanian business environment and for the local and regional authorities. This paper brings in discussion the main facts about clusters and looks for the potential of clusters in Romania.
