European Meta-Cluster

Connecting Europe's Regional Strengths into a Shared Innovation Ecosystem

Sustainnovation Hub Cluster is developing toward a European meta-cluster model — connecting existing regional and sectoral clusters rather than competing with them.

The meta-cluster approach does not replace regional clusters. It connects them. Regional clusters provide local knowledge, companies and specialised capabilities. The Sustainnovation Hub Cluster creates the European layer connecting these ecosystems across regions, sectors and innovation programmes.
