Abstract

Cluster organisations are business entities that act as network centres to coordinate the operations of business clusters. To ensure their sustainability, each cluster organisation should adopt a commons approach by including all affected stakeholders from the cluster activity in its governance framework. To this end, the article examines an appropriate supranational corporate form for the operation of cluster organisations as commons in the EU. By exploring the phenomenon of regulatory competition, it suggests reflexive harmonisation as an effective model of flexibility that can play a central role in the commons approach of cluster organisations in EU regions. Based on this model, the article identifies a novel EU-wide legal form for cluster organisations, by comparatively using legal elements stemming from the supranational corporate forms of existing and proposed EU business entities.
