Clusters in Different Countries
Identifying Industry Clusters in Arizona
• Business Interdependence:Arizona chose clusters where businesses relate to each other through the buyer-supplier “food chain,” as competitors, or as partners.
• Export Oriented:Many of the companies in the cluster sell products or services to companies outside the region.
• Concentration:Employment in the cluster is more concentrated in the region than the national average, and the cluster is an existing or emerging area of specialization.
• Significant Size or Rapid Growth:The cluster is of a significant size or, if new, has an above average growth rate compared to that of the U.S. as a whole.
