“…(3) Enabling local cluster development: how improving the external context for companies, changing societal conditions, reducing the distance between local suppliers, local institutions and local infrastructures and making community investments unleash new growth and productivity gains. There are quite a lot of reports (Borgonovi et al, 2011;Jenkins and Fries, 2012;Patscheke et al, 2014;CSR Asia and Prudence Foundation, 2016) acknowledging examples and cases on cluster development with relation to CSV, focusing on and addressing different kind of social failures; nonetheless, literature on this topic is very recent and quite limited (Lee et al, 2014;Invernizzi et al, 2015;Berti and Mulligan, 2016;Grèzes et al, 2016;Serra et al, 2016;Smith, 2016;Alberti and Belfanti, 2019;Collazzo Yelpo and Kubelka, 2019).…”

Purpose This paper aims to contribute to the debate about creating shared value (CSV) and clusters, by shedding light on how clusters might generate shared value, i.e. cause social and business benefits, hence focusing on the following research question “do clusters create shared value?” Design/methodology/approach The study relied on social network analysis methods and techniques. Data have been collected from both primary and secondary sources, in the empirical context of the Motor Valley cluster in Emilia-Romagna. The authors computed three independent and four dependent variables to operationalize the concept of cluster development and shared value creation. A multiple regression quadratic assignment procedure and, more specifically, the most accurate model of that procedure, that is the double semi-partialling method, has been carried out to answer the research question. Finally, empirical evidence has been complemented with other cluster-level data recently collected by the Italian Cluster Mapping project. Findings The findings confirm how the development of the Motor Valley cluster in Emilia-Romagna contributed to the creation of economic and social growth opportunities for all the actors. The study shows that clusters do create shared value and the chosen cluster development variables do explain much of the business and social impact variables at a very high statistical significance level. Originality/value The paper contributes to the under-explored research on clusters and CSV with a very first attempt in providing quantitative evidence of the phenomenon.
