One of the main goals of the CLOE-conference in Karlsruhe is to display new models and current trends in cluster development.

The conference aims to draw attention and to stimulate the discussion on clusters and therefore to intensify the dynamics of cluster building processes on a regional, national and international level. Thus, the CLOE-conference actively contributes to the further development of cluster politics and helps to enhance networking potentials.

Another important aspect is the entrepreneurial approach of the conference, which is emphasised by numerous representatives from the industry, who participate in the conference, as well as the cluster tour.

Besides, the conference encourages linkages with other clusters worldwide and the identifi cation of possible partnerships in future common cluster initiatives.
