Taking “Networked” to a New Level: 
Cluster Initiatives in Western Maine

Here at WMA, we think cluster initiatives build on the best of networks, community planning and economic development – the success of local agriculture is one good example.  In 2011, WMA’s Board used this "white paper" to consider how collaborative cluster initiatives could provide a framework for applying limited resources more strategically, and achieving better economic outcomes for the region. Tell us what you think by commenting on Facebook or emailing tswain@westernmountainsalliance.org.
