The director of the Association of Clusters and Technology Parks of Russia, Andrey Shpilenko, told Omsky Biocluster in an exclusive interview about industrial clusters, production process chains and the Association’s participation in the implementation of national projects.
Andrey Shpilenko noted that now the use of the cluster approach as a principle of building the economy has already taken one of the key places in the strategies of socio-economic development of several Russian regions and municipal communities. Industrial clusters are created on the initiative and in the interests of the business community, but taking into account the priorities of the implementation of the regional industrial policy.
"It is important that the mechanism of industrial clusters fully meets the objectives set by Presidential Decree No. 204 of May 7, 2018 'On the National Goals and Strategic Objectives of the Development of the Russian Federation for the Period up to 2024', and is the only measure of support in Russia covering the entire list of costs required to start production of a new type of industrial products, as well as an effective tool to stimulate industrial enterprises to increase economic independence within countries (essentially recreating broken earlier cooperation links) through the creation of new and integration into existing production chains", director of the Association said. According to him, the cluster is the source of "high quality investment offers."
