摘要:The cluster (cluster group) identification methodology according to Porter includes some successive steps. The basis of the economic agglomeration identification methodology is the method of distribution of employment over industries on the territory, according to which: first, all sectors (industries) are grouped into three types; second, the industries are identified; third, the cluster group composition is determined; fourth, identification of the most significant cluster groups, precluding false correlations between industries, is performed; fifth, the existing intersections in cluster groups are analysed. The authors present the algorithm of identifying the developed region clusters is based on identification of agglomeration effects of concentration, urbanisation and joint localisation of regional industries’ enterprises and their economic efficiency, thus, the algorithm is the scientifically grounded method of forming the regional cluster structure. The use of this algorithm will enable developing the efficient cluster policy aimed at increase of employment in the region, salary, wage and budget income level, growth of the competitive ability of the region.
