Forged at the heart of international political bodies by expert
researchers, the innovation cluster concept has been incorporated
into most public policies in industrialized countries. Based
largely on the ideas behind the success of Silicon Valley, several
imitative attempts have been made to geographically group
laboratories, companies and training in particular fields in order
to generate "synergies" between science and industry. In its first
part, Innovation in Clusters analyzes the infatuation with the
system of clusters that is integral to innovative policies by
analyzing its socio historical context, its revival in management
and its worldwide expansion, looking at a French example at a local
level. In its second part, the book explores a specialized
biotechnology cluster dating back to the end of the 1990s. The
sociological survey conducted twenty years later sheds a different
light on the dynamics and relationships between laboratories and
companies, contradicting the commonly held belief that innovation
is made possible by geographical proximity.
