Clustering and Emergent Features of the Regional Economics of the Kemerovo Region

摘要

The subject matter of this research is the processes of clustering in the regional economics. Currently, clustering is the most efficient form of conducting the innovative activity. For industrial regions, such as the Kemerovo region, the benefits of clustering comprise the creation of an efficient production scale rise. The purpose of this article is to study the ways to create the integrated tools formations in the industrial region. In addition, clustering advantages are imposing a qualitatively new impetus onto the development of the economics as a result of a mutually beneficial relationship emerged between industry and research organizations, universities, innovative businesses and the public sector. The paper concludes that development in the region of several cluster formations can provide the effect of the emergence of functioning of the entire regional economics. The effect in question is caused by the fact that the sum of potentials of the individual elements of the regional economics is less than the total capacity of a cluster in which these elements interact with each other. This feature provides for a number of advantages of regional economies considered in this article. In addition, the authors have identified problems that have a negative impact on the development of the innovation sphere of an industrial region.
