From Fragmentation to Integration: Development Process of Innovation Clusters in Korea

Abstract: This paper deals with the cluster concept for understanding the status of formation and development of innovation clusters in Korea. It identifies the patterns of clusters through overall review of the various clusters in Korea. The study revealed that production clusters were built either by government policy or by investment of large chaebols during the 1960s and 1970s. In the 1980s and 1990s formation of more advanced types of clusters like those of R&D was also initiated by the government. Although the… Show more

“…The exception has been the Regional Research Centers (RRC), which have succeeded in coordinating region-specific innovation, especially when innovation clusters are not fully developed and the costs of initiating them are not excessively high. The RRCs enabled intra-regional collaboration with no additional costs, for either the manufacturing firm using the technology or the researchers themselves (Lee, 2001). …”
