The difference between traditional industrial clusters and innovation clusters is considered. Examples of successful cluster operation in some countries around the world are studied. Practical meaning. It is emphasized that the efficiency of the cluster, and therefore its development, is significantly influenced by the availability of scientific potential and activity of research institutes, as well as access to non-reimbursable funds (institutions, agencies) and the operation of technology parks. Value / originality. It is observed that due to globalization, the role of clusters in competition is increasingly important. In this context, the forms of cluster development in Ukraine were proposed, as well as examples of successful clusters in Ukraine were considered.
