Abstract

Europe is home to some 2 900 specialised clusters, statistically defined regional concentrations of traded industries. Clusters matter: the effect of cluster specialisation is equal to approximately a 13.5% increase in average wage. Specialised clusters show higher average wage and employment increases. They inhabit also a higher number of innovative and high-growth firms and start-ups.
