Produktbeschreibung

Policy needs to focus on infrastructure in particular regions, building on existing resources and specialisms, and it needs to support those features of a cluster that attract new resources to a region.

Comparing the clustering process in the UK and the US in both computing and biotechnology, the contributors to this volume establish that new firms have been attracted to particular sites by the presence of opportunities not taken up by incumbent firms.
