Guest Countries

The BCSS wants to maintain an international dimension both in the profile of its students, professors and case studies, as well as in presenting different approaches to cluster competitiveness methodologies. That is why since its beginnings; every year it has invited a guest country to present its examples and to compare it with Catalonia’s own experience.

The first edition counted with the presence of Slovenia, represented by its former Minister of Economy Tea Petrin, the second year it was Canada, represented by the Clusters Programmes Coordinator at the National Research Council, Anne Ballantyne, and the present edition we will be presenting Denmark experience in cluster policies, represented by FORA Director, Jorgen Rosted and Upper Austria experience in cluster management, represented by Clusterland Upper Austria Managing Director, Werner Pamminger.
