| Tiivistelmä: | Based on a knowledge-based perspective, this paper analyzes the role of cluster governance in knowledge management (KM). An empirical study of two small French firm clusters is performed based on nearly 30 interviews. The data analysis consisted essentially in content analysis. The studied clusters were characterized by distinct KM processes. In both cases, governance was needed to support knowledge integration by member firms. The results suggest that establishing an initial common knowledge base appears to be a prerequisite in order for the external knowledge identification and acquisition processes to take place. The activist role played by governance also seems more efficient than that of a broker etc. |
