2 PARTNERSHIP BUILDING Jointly we can reach more! Regarding the creation of meta-cluster is this sentence rather apposite. Internationalization of cluster cooperation is a fruitful collaboration for all included clusters. It improves the cluster management from all points of view. Networking and identification of best practices among cooperating clusters leads to economic growth of all involved subjects thanks do sharing such knowledge and experience. In this way clusters learn from each other how to be more effective and competitive. Being part of an international cluster reduces the costs and supports the economic development through specialization, which in the end increases the prosperity of all included subjects. The Head of International Cleantech Network (ICN), Stephan Skare Nielsen explains the importance of partnership building as following: Partnership is an essential element in international Collaboration because it brings cooperation between regions to a very concrete level. ICN understands the importance of collaboration as being the tool helping to aim for the bigger picture. Thanks to this, dreams of taking on greater challenges and crating large, integrated solutions become realizable. 2
