A cluster-based approach starts with the industries and assets that are already present in the region and regional stakeholders pursue initiatives to make those industries better by upgrading skills, access to finance and infrastructure, by streamlining government rules and regulations, by supporting local demand, and by being open to foreign investment and competition.
While clusters of industries that are present in a region do not necessarily need public sector strategies in order to exist, TexAmericas Center recognizes that having the right policies and strategies can help the businesses within a cluster become more successful and competitive. While our cluster-based strategies are not, necessarily, organized around attracting large entities from elsewhere, we recognize and encourage that potential.
