This paper presents the experiences taken from the cluster policy in the Vasco country, showing its beginnings and evolution. It also defines the terms clusters, cluster associations and cluster policy, describing the origins of cluster associations as a response to a crisis term, the results of the process of integration o different economic sectors in each region, and the challenges taken in each action, aiming at guaranteeing their expansion, not only according with geographical limits, but also in relation with type of activity and agents involved in such associations. The main thesis of this paper states that its main objective is to implement and manage the cluster policy, raising competitiveness, in this particular case, in the Vasco economy, starting by the cooperation between associated companies and the sectors they belong to, a reason why all clusters associations aims at developing three main areas: technology, quality and internationalization.
