UNIDO is the UN specialized industrial agency mandated to promote industrial development and international industrial cooperation. It has implemented technical cooperation projects based on Cluster and Network development since the mid 1990s with the following assumptions:
- Clustering and networking among enterprises promotes enterprise competitiveness
- Public policy can facilitate clustering and networking
- Support targeted at groups of enterprises is more efficient and effective than if targeted at individual enterprises
UNIDO Definition of a Cluster
“Cluster is a Sectoral and Geographical Concentration of Small/Medium Enterprises facing Common Opportunities and Threats.”
