Answer 1

Ques 1. The disadvantages of Innovation Clusters are:

• This may result in excessive concentration of major enterprises in environmental conflict. Further the cluster could push technology obsolescence and decrease of its competitiveness in the markets
• These clusters are often reserved. This reserved character may result in the elasticity reduction of the participating enterprises
• Also, there is absence of competitors in these clusters. This may lead to destruction of the need for constant updation of production and sales processes.
• the complication lies in the fact that each cluster is unique. This uniqueness may lead to considerable complication of efficiency. Hence the functioning may not be up to date, as there is no comparison with other clusters
• There is a correlation between the cluster and the performance of each of its member.
