Abstract

Cluster growth initiatives, especially in high technology industries, are part of many countries’ attempt at developing a competitive edge in the global market. This chapter describes and analyses how Singapore attempts to develop three specific high technology clusters – media, aerospace engineering, and alternative energy. It highlights and examines the strategies used to promote cluster growth. It also discusses the different roles of the government in promoting high technology cluster growth and some of the challenges Singapore will face in moving forward in this journey.
