Title: A conceptual framework of cluster innovation mechanism based on network theory: A case of Dalian Software Park in China
Abstract: Industry clusters, which encompass a series of interconnected firms or heterogeneous firms in designated geographic concentrations, show competitive advantages for industrial development with substantial resources from the encouraged networks among firms, and then lead to the development of cluster innovation by information sharing and effective knowledge/technology transfer. In a word, the clustering effects generated from the formation of industry cluster and networks among the firms are well displayed and utilized. With a case study of Dalian Software Park (DLSP) in China and based on the viewpoints of networks, this paper attempts to provide a feasible framework to elucidate the innovation mechanism of industry clusters and to give more suggestive implications for the success of industry cluster, industrial development and economic growth.
