Korean Film Industry is focused on the Seoul Metropolitan Areas. Recently regional governments are interested in Film Industry and they are constructing the Film Industry Cluster powerfully. Especially the Government of NoMuHyun's the policy of the regional development is changed to the central focused development in the Governmen of LeeMyungbak. And somebody insisted that Film Industry Cluster is based on the Seoul Metropolitan Areas and the moving of the film related public organization to the Busan City should be cancelled for the development of the Korean Film Industry. But the Busan should be the main city in constructing the Film Industry Cluster and the public film organizations should be moved to the Busan.

The purpose of this paper is to analyses current status and issues of cluster formation and extract policy implications. To this end, the questionnaire which surveyed the level of cluster formation were executed targeting the actors of regional innovation projects(RIPs). The results show that the situations and development stage of the cluster formation between capital region and non-capital region, large cities and small and medium sized cites are different. The level of clustering is also satisfactory, which is a requirement for cluster formation at its early stage. However, the capacity for phase II of cluster growth is not sufficient yet in terns of relationships between ventures and large corporations, institutions supporting management, finance and marketing, researchers from each individual sector of strategic industries and spin-off fines. Therefore, RIPs should be promoted with different policy tools for various regions that are devised according to the varying development stage of each region. The location of RIPs should be determined considering efficiency rather than equity, clustering rather than decentralization, and specialization rather than multiple development. In the long term, developed regions should pursue balanced regional development, with underdeveloped regions targeting specialization.

Despite growing recognition of the significance of industrial clusters to regional economic success, there has been only limited attention paid to the effectiveness of cluster policies in old industrial regions. Many of these regions still retain functioning industrial clusters, or have clusters which are adopting new strategies as part of a process of regeneration. This paper argues that the effectiveness of cluster policies in old industrial regions depends upon the extent to which they recognise the evolutionary nature of industrial clusters. It reviews the literature on the transformation of old industrial regions in Europe, and examines how cluster policies have risen to prominence as a policy tool. These strands ate brought together in an exploration of cluster policies in old industrial regions. A brief case study is presented of the evolution of the steel industry supply chain in north east England. The conclusions focus upon the data requirements that form a starting point for informed policy intervention into presses of cluster evolution.

National balanced development and regional innovation have been one of the most important national agendas under the Participatory Government. National balanced development gives a central focus on realizing self-sustaining localization which is based on regional innovation. The core policy goal is to build competitive regional innovation system and innovative clusters in the regions of the country. In this vein, this paper aims to evaluate the present government's policies of regional innovation and innovative cluster. It needs to point out that the regional innovation and cluster policies show some critical problems. Firstly, the policy-making process is based on the top-down approach rather than the bottom-up one. Secondly, regional innovation policies, in many cases, expose the redundancy of similar policies and a lack of linkages between similar policies. Thirdly, the regional innovation policies are too much social infrastructure building-centered, even though the basic principle of regional innovation policy should be based on building superstructure such as networking and social capital.

This research investigates the characteristics, principles, advantages, factors and problems of cluster development in Kazakhstan, and identifies the prerequisites, conditions and stages of organizing clusters on the framework of special economic zones. In this research, we used methods, which will allow analyzing of the organization industrial clusters in special economic zones in Kazakhstan. The author studied international experience of cluster development and the efficiency of the use of the model of the "rhombus effect" with account the specific features of interaction between the participants of the cluster, analysis of the legal framework for the formation and development of clusters. These have been identified as the more important or strategically necessary clusters in Kazakhstan: innovation-technological cluster, innovation-education cluster, innovation-petrochemical cluster, innovative-metallurgical cluster, transport and logistics cluster, textile industry cluster, tourism cluster, agro cluster, construction cluster, medical and pharmaceutical cluster. Firstly, the results suggest that the interaction of science, education, business and government in the development and implementation of innovation policy is not sufficiently structured to provide a balanced representation of the interests of the range of various innovative enterprises in Kazakhstan. Secondly, the legal basis of cluster development in Kazakhstan is determined. Need to develop mechanisms for the implementation of promising direction. Thirdly, the clusters can be formed in the existing special economic zones, allowing them to get right to the mass production of high-tech products that are developed.

The purpose of this research is how to build the film industry cluster compare with the policies of metropolitan areas and local film industry. This research select four areas including Seoul and Kyunggi areas and Busan, Jeonju. And through the compare with the film industry infra & policies which results in as follows. This research suggest that film industry cluster devided into the two types. The one is the Film Industry Cluster Type and the other is Film Connected Tourism Business Cluster Type. Film Industry Cluster Type is devided into international competitive cities and domestic film industry cities. We suggest that Seoul, Kyunggi and Busan areas are designated to international competitive cities and Jeonju and Daejeon areas are designated to domestical cities. And the kwangwon, Chungcheng, Cheju Areas designated to Film Connected Tourism Business Cluster for location and open set business to improve the local development.

This study was carried into execution to analyze Spatial Characteristics of Seoul Business Services Cluster in circumstance of local economic development led by knowledge-intensive business services. The analysis was performed for industrial agglomeration and companies' linkage and network. As the result, there are three business services cluster, including the largest one in Gang-Nam Gu, Seoul, and for last 10 years, there has been increasing development of business services cluster. In the meanwhile, their linkage and network have not been performed briskly. Therefore, from now on, a plan that can help companies' linkage and network performed inside of cluster to have active and international structure has to be considered in cluster policy.

Korea government has established 67 agri-food clusters for 10 years. In recent years, the criticism of this policy has significantly increased due to trials and errors. The purpose of this study is to suggest some policy implications for the focal firm and governance mechanism through the case study of Muan Loess Sweet Potato Cluster. The concept of netchain was used as an analysis framework. Muan Loess Sweet Potato Cluster doesn't operate an integrated production organization and focal firm doesn't exercise its influence as well. The cluster agency, focal firm of Cluster, is important for a Agri-food Cluster to grow continuously. it must have a great influence on organizing networks and an enough capacity for forming coordination mechanism. Also, Local governments must actively be involved in the network formation and coordination and inform the vision and plan for development.

Following the collapse of Hanjin Shipping, building a strong maritime cluster is one of the policy measures for the re-construction of the Korean shipping and shipbuilding industries. Thus, the purpose of this study is to develop a policy alternative for building a maritime cluster. Using Porter's diamond models, we analyzed the Imabari maritime cluster of Japan, which is characterized by cooperation between key industries, such as shipping, shipbuilding, shipbuilding equipment, and finance. The Imabari Maritime Cluster is equipped with complete domestic demand conditions and related supporting industry conditions. Although the strengths of the production conditions include excellent family-based management and strong support from regional administration and banks which develops independency among cluster members, the weak points include the absense of robust port services and difficulty in recruiting young talent in small and medium-sized cities. We can confirm that the company's strategy is focused on stable management, rather than a short-term view.
