The cluster concept is associated with great hopes for growth and the resulting positive employment and income effects at regional level. Due to a concentration of companies and organizations in the same industry, competitive advantages can arise for the local companies, but these do not necessarily have to be permanent. Nevertheless, in anticipation of positive regional development, cluster funding has established itself as a central component of economic policy in recent years. Based on three case studies of the packaging machine construction industry in Schwäbisch-Hall, Central Hesse and the Stuttgart region, the present work therefore examines why clusters in the same industry can undergo completely contrary developments over time and what influences cluster policy can have on the addressed companies.
