door for and to their stakeholders (one-stop-shop)• Each cluster have access to a large company base, 5-
10 knowledge institutions and a broad range of different public authorities
• That means access to over +8000 stakeholders
• 2. Joint projects • Partnership building• Opportunity spotting and market insights• Cross regional transparency• Entrepreneurship and incubation• Education, research and exchange programs
