This document discusses cluster development and the Pole Program in Hungary. It finds that before 2008, Hungary had some clusters but they lacked consistent national policy support and financing. The Pole Program was created to address issues like low R&D spending, lack of cooperation between businesses and universities, and inadequate access to financing. The Program coordinates funding across operational programs totaling €1,441-1,662 million between 2007-2013 to strengthen the business environment, support enterprise and cluster development, and drive innovation in Hungary.

3) Research, development, and commercialization clusters will be identified in areas where Russia has competitive advantages.
4) Skolkovo will function as a catalyst to accelerate the creation and commercialization of ideas through research funding, business incubation, and venture capital support.

3) Implement a contest where VPs work under a new structure and the LC with the highest success rate manages future national projects.
4) Ensure projects have managers, teams, and focus on quality.

The document discusses strategic approaches for businesses to take advantage of opportunities presented by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). It outlines that traditional responses to increased government spending have often yielded suboptimal results. It recommends a rigorous three-part process: 1) Developing an external market view of ARRA opportunities through in-depth analysis; 2) Conducting an internal capabilities assessment; 3) Creating a coordinated action plan. The document emphasizes the unprecedented scale, complexity, pace and transparency of the ARRA require a systematic strategic approach rather than typical reactive responses.

23. Final goal and success scenario of the cluster development by 2013-2015
By 2013-2015:
▪ 5-10 successful pole Parameters of a successful pole innovation cluster
innovation clusters will ▪ It consists of 30-35 SMEs and has multinational members
operate in Hungary ▪ It exports to several countries of the world
▪ It contributes to the employment growth primarily by the
▪ All of them will reach a creation of highly qualified jobs
significant market share in ▪ It operates in one of the most profitable segments of the
their respective markets in industrial value chain
Europe ▪ It has strong and live international relations with foreign
▪ All of the successful pole business and academia
innovation clusters will be an
organic part of the global
industrial value chain
Strategic steps between 2009-2013:
• Elaboration and introduction of the pole innovation clusters in the cluster development model
• Strong support for the internationalization of the Hungarian accredited and pole innovation
clusters
• Gaining synergies from the tight connection of the cluster development pillar and the horizontal
economic development pillar of the Pole Program
Due to the successful clusters the focus of the Hungarian economy shifts
to activities with higher added value than presently
