Main objectives

The main objectives of the European Cluster Alliance are:

to share the experience gained so far in cluster policies by public authorities at national and regional level in order to fine-tune existing, or develop new and better cluster policies in the future;
to go beyond the identification of good cluster policies and to facilitate a true policy dialogue between those who wish to jointly advance the European cluster agenda in areas of common interest;
to become the single place at EU level for elaborating and exchanging new ideas and practical tools, new funding initiatives for improving cluster policies in Europe and for fostering European cooperation at policy level;
to raise the level of excellence and efficiency of cluster policies in Europe which will result in the creation of more competitive world-class clusters in Europe, as proposed by the Commission Communication on clusters.
