Develop regional clusters<br />

Based on the analysis <strong>of</strong> agglomerations <strong>of</strong><br />

enterprises, the road and rail access network,<br />

the distance / proximity to the institutional<br />

centres, urbanized centres and proximity to the<br />

airport and ports, four typologies <strong>of</strong> specialized<br />

clusters have been selected.<br />

Regional agencies, regional municipalities,<br />

universities, institutes, and the regional SMEs<br />

and innovation board, based on the stage <strong>of</strong><br />

development and interaction <strong>of</strong> clustering<br />

(clusters under creation), should take clear<br />

steps in building responsible institutions and<br />

management structures.<br />

The typologies <strong>of</strong> the proposed regional<br />

geographic clusters are:<br />

• Innovative business cluster –<br />

technological hub;<br />

It is proposed to develop technopolises as<br />

centres focused on research and development<br />

<strong>of</strong> innovative technologies, global marketing<br />

network and innovation networks.<br />

(the pole <strong>of</strong> Rinas airport; the northern centre<br />

“Dëshmorët e Kombit” boulevard in <strong>Tirana</strong>; the<br />

centre <strong>of</strong> Spitalle, <strong>Durres</strong>)<br />

• ‘Furniture industry’ and textile industry<br />

(clothing/footwear) cluster;<br />

It is proposed to develop regional centres<br />

specialized in ‘Furniture and Fashion’<br />

sectors. These structures should promote the<br />

development <strong>of</strong> specialized school curricula as<br />

well as specialized employment. They should<br />

guide the cooperation <strong>of</strong> entrepreneurs who<br />

produce partial products or raw materials, to<br />

products that complement each other.<br />

(the poles <strong>of</strong> ‘Kombinat’ in <strong>Tirana</strong>, Kamez,<br />

Shijak)<br />

• Creative industry cluster;<br />

Develop centres with a focus on the creative<br />

industries <strong>of</strong> various dimensions, such as<br />

music, fashion, media, visual arts, culture etc.<br />

(the pole <strong>of</strong> ‘Kinostudio’ in <strong>Tirana</strong>, <strong>Durres</strong><br />

centre)<br />
