The Unwelcome Cluster in Brno: A Case of Reverse Synergy
Original language description
Do three companies make a cluster? The intentional formation of industry clusters is a strategy that has been implemented in regions and communities in recent years to develop local economies. This paper examines such a strategic effort in the Brno region of the Czech Republic. Three manufacturing companies in the electron microscope industry were interested in education of the highly-qualified labor force within the Brno region, and activities that could make this industry more visible. However, this was not enough to create a formal regional cluster even with the help of the European Union funding. Competitive pressures among local companies prevailed over the suggested collaborative efforts. These are results of the case-based research and interviews of key persons in the Brno region.
