the aim of this study is to analyze the impact of industrial structure of clusters on entrepreneurship in business clusters (case study: valuable metals and precious stones of isfahan's clusters). the relevant population is isfahan clusters of valuable metals and precious stones. number of population is over than 300enterprises. according to the formula of sampling structural equation mode...

clusters are geographically close groups of related companies or institutions related to a certain area which are inherently more efficient than the other companies due to advantages such as being located in one place, networks, external knowledge, variability of human capital, etc. today, development through clusters plays a pivotal role in the economic and industrial policies of developed cou...

Industry clusters have been the focus of scholars and governments since the second half of the 20th century. During a cluster’s growing process, the government plays an important role. In order to show the growing law of the clusters and how government did for co-agglomeration, we proposed two kinds of models: Logistic model and BA model with parameter α to describe the single and mass clusters...

Industrial clusters have received much attention in economic research in the last decade. They are seen as one of the reasons for the economic success of certain regions in comparison to others. This paper studies the evolution of such industrial clusters. To this end, a spatial structure of regions is set up and the entry, exit, and growth of rms within these regions is modelled and studied wi...

Industrial clusters are promoted by policy and generally viewed as good for growth and development, but both clusters and policies may also enable noncompetitive behavior. This paper studies the presence of non-competitive pricing in geographic industrial clusters. We develop, validate, and apply a novel screen for collusive-like behavior. We derive the screen from the solution to a partial car...

The local formation, and benefits, of industrial clusters have received considerable research attention during the past decade. In some extreme versions, clusters are hailed as a universal panacea for local and regional development because of their alleged greater propensity to reduce transaction costs, to promote inter-firm learning, innovation, and knowledge transfer and, as a result, to incr...

Competitiveness is divided into two broad categories named as macroeconomic and microeconomic competitiveness. Microeconomic competitiveness indicators have a direct impact on company productivity within which sate of cluster development is the most important pillar of microeconomic competitiveness that are introduced by Michael Porter and it's framework as Diamond Model. The Diamond reveals al...
