In fact, you really need not imagine anything. Here you will find it as a member of a cluster, a concentration of companies, institutions and related stakeholders that are close at hand and both compete and cooperate at the same time.

Who is it for?

A cluster is an organization that focuses on the competitiveness of companies, which are mostly SMEs, but also include startups, multinationals, technology centres and universities.

The advantages

The members of the cluster come together both to increase their individual competitiveness and, meanwhile, to improve the quality of their surroundings. They share a space where everyone has all the tools they require to improve their competitive strategy, a challenge that often draws from cooperation with the other members as they all jointly represent the same value chain.

Clusters are organizations based on trust relationships that are not controlled by larger companies but led by the most active companies, regardless of their size. They do so within the framework of a dynamic organization the focus of which is competitiveness. The work philosophy, the positioning and the activity of a cluster are specific and differential.

In addition, clusters have a team led by the Cluster Manager, an executive dedicated exclusively to generating trust, to networking, to advising companies and to building activities and projects to make them more competitive.

Through the Catalonia Clusters Programme ACCIÓ has established an ecosystem of 27 clusters. This is an interconnected network that offers any company participating in a cluster access to work with the others. This is possible thanks to the networking of intercluster dynamics.

How it works

Working in a cluster promotes actions aligned with the strategic challenges of the cluster itself, as defined by its member companies, with a view to improving companies’ competitiveness. It does so through innovation in its business models, the internationalization of markets, management training and intercluster dynamics.

Projects platform

The cluster allows for the boosting transformational projects, which are aligned with future strategies that are difficult for a company on its own to follow.

Strategic intelligence

The cluster provides knowledge of winning strategies. The exchange of knowledge and experience yields information about the market, business challenges, trends and key technologies and success stories and failures from which to learn.

Networking

Clusters are based on relationships of trust generated by interaction among companies. Formal and informal meetings allow for the sharing of opportunities and the generation of business.

If you still have not done so, find your cluster!

Shared value

As a cluster member, you will be able to incorporate sustainability into your company's business model and turn it into one of the main axes of your strategy. We will help you work with the B-Corp tool, which is linked to the Sustainable Development Goals, thus enhancing the generation of shared value by your company.

Why is shared value important?

Talent retention. New generations want to work in sustainable companies.
Responsible consumption. Ethics is already one of the most important purchasing criteria for consumers.
Funding. Being sustainable allows you to attract more customers and access the best sources of public and private funding, where sustainability criteria are becoming an increasingly essential requirement.
Law. Regulations across all levels of government require increasing sustainability criteria.

Why apply shared value from the cluster?

Access to the identification of business opportunities linked to the shared value together with the cluster companies.
Identification of international best practices linked to these opportunities.
Specialised training to use B-Corp in your company.
Exchange of experiences with the other cluster members.
