Co-location of industries
Lindqvist, ESPON, Luxembourg, 5 Nov 20096
Local (not clustered)
Cluster category 1
Cluster category 2
The ”cluster sector” represents about 1/3 of all employment
About 65% of employment
About 35%of employment
Lindqvist, ESPON, Luxembourg, 5 Nov 20097
About 500 industries,38 cluster categories
About 250 NUTS-2 regions

the same industrymore than with firms in general

co-locate with firms of any industry
