The Virtual Workshop of the TCI Cluster Evaluation Working Group took place last April, 27, addressing the topic of Evidencing the Wider Impact of Clusters.

More than 220 people from around the globe registered for this online activity, eager to expand their knowledge on the challenges of cluster evaluation.

In a meeting that lasted more than 2 hours, presenters from Catalonia, Spain (Joan Martí, ACCIÓ), Sweden (Emily Wise, Lund University) and Federica Belfanti and Fernando Alberti, Liuc University(Italy) shared their experience, reflectioning on the following questions:

What strategic frameworks help drive more than economic contributions from clusters in your region?

What types of contributions to broader system-level improvements do clusters make for Immediate Spillover Effects, Strategic Leadership Role, Higher Level effects?

How do clusters monitor and evidence the difference they make in these areas, and how do they communicate to their different audiences?
