Abstract:

Building the local economy in terms of its structures and relationships is a major challenge for local authorities. Particularly difficult for regional competitiveness are the areas which focuses many companies with the same or a related sector. It is important to manage appropriately with their resources and production capabilities, which can bring benefits both for the region and the entities operating in a specific region. Identification of clusters is the initial action allowing to know the economic strength of its regional dimension. At the economic and political level, the cluster provides support for the government, which is able to capture the sense of the range of need for innovative activities in the region and this in turn, provides a strong incentive allowing to focus on clusters promotion. However, it is necessary to maintain the correct order, because only after the entrepreneurship and regional production systems analysis (e.g. in form of technological innovation) and finding a market imperfections, the government can decide, what actions are more likely to influence the improvement of regional economy. The lower levels of cluster should not be excluded, because the identification of actions based on cooperation is made there. This article presents a practical solution to identify potential cluster initiative for companies in the construction sector in one of the Polish provinces.
