Abstract

This paper provides evidence of the movement towards a sector-based approach to regional development by the Welsh Development Agency, its effects on economic competitiveness and its role as a focal point for stimulating the development of specialized industrial clusters. The paper concentrates on the initiatives taking place in the electronics/IT, automotive and healthcare sectors in Wales, and the development of clustering through vertical linkages in the machine tooling sector.
