EXTRA MATERIAL FOR BUFFET
How can (and SHOULD) cluster researchers be used by clusters? To provide neutral, expert perspectives on particular questions (legitimacy) To follow and analyze processes over longer time periods (fostering learning and improvements within cluster) To involve your cluster in developing and spreading knowledge on particular topics (fostering broader knowledge development, and new external/international linkages) Others...

What cluster research could be worth following/developing...and how? Which overarching research themes are of interest to your cluster (of those in the mapping, or others)? What particular questions do you have? How to follow or develop (together with researchers)? Indirect: Google searches (Google Scholar) and TCI lists of academic articles related to clusters Direct: Contact the researcher and discuss, attend relevant conferences Most proactive: Propose your own questions/topics to pursue together with relevant researchers
