Business Clusters

Clusters are groups of companies and related organisations that collaborate to grow their business.

Using this collaborative team approach allows businesses, regions and interest groups to develop greater speed, quality, innovation and critical mass. This assists in resolving practical issues like training, infrastructure and procurement.

If you see benefit in networking and co-operating with other businesses and organisations related to your industry, our cluster development programme may be able to help you.

We provide tools, advice, facilitation and funding to businesses, regions, and groups of organisations.
