individual companies
• Internationalisation of clusters are so much more than study trips and
trade fairs
• Internationalisation of clusters are not only export promotion
• Clusters have individual needs, that varies over time
• Need for different competencee and different types of support.
• Clusters are not just sums of individual companies..
