This paper examined the relationships among firms in a rapidly growing specialized industrial cluster—the Chery automotive cluster located in the Wuhu Economic and Technology Development in eastern China. After demonstrating how the Chery automotive cluster contributed to sustainable regional economic development, it focused on defining the roles that major firms play in the localized production network. Based on three attributes of the firm (network linkages, network position, and network power), the study identified a typology of firms’ role, including the dominant core, lead firms, gatekeepers, intermediaries, club of foreigners, peripherals, and loners. By revealing the heterogeneity of the firms and discussing the differing roles they play in the network, the paper made some policy recommendations to promote the sustainable development of the cluster, including providing policy supports to core firms, encouraging inter-firm networking and interaction, and diversifying the cohort of gatekeepers.

Coordination Degree

Based on the principle of coupled cooperation, the article identifies indicators from the perspective of industrial clusters, uses the principal component analysis to extract the effective coupling indicators of military-and-civilian integration industry and regional economic development and builds a model for the coupling coordination between the two. Taking the aerospace manufacturing industry in Shaanxi Province as an example, the article finds that the coupling degree between the aerospace manufacturing industry in Shaanxi Province and the regional economy has been increasing year by year, gradually shifting from disordered development to orderly evolution. Finally, based on empirical conclusions, relevant recommendations are given.

New Evidence

The impact and effectiveness of policies to support collaboration for Research & Development (R&D) and Innovation is critical to determining the success of regional economic development. (O’Kane, 2008) The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the level of success of the Innovation Vouchers Program operated by Invest Northern Ireland (Invest NI) from 2009 to 2013 and address if attitudinal views towards innovation development should play in a role in future policy design in peripheral EU regions.
