The TCI 2019 Conference will take place from October 8 to October 10, 2019 and is being organized by Flanders Investment &Trade, Flanders Innovation & Entrepreneurship (VLAIO) and VisitFlanders.
Two main types of clusters
As part of its official cluster policy, Flanders has launched various innovative business networks. These networks aim to create a dynamic within a group of companies, and are expected to implement a concrete action plan:
- by fostering intense cooperation between the participating companies
- resulting in demonstrable economic added value.
Local clusters with global potential
Putting Flanders’ spearhead clusters on the global map is a keygoal of Flanders Investment &Trade, as part of ‘VlaanderenVersnelt’ or ‘FlandersAccelerates’. This refers to the official internationalization strategyaimed at promoting the region’s global potential in five main domains:
- life sciences and health;
- food and nutrition;
- solution-driven engineering and technology;
- smart logistics;
- sustainable materials, resources and chemistry.
