Hungarian biotechnological company clusters in terms of innovation co-operations

Summary/Abstract: New market structures and branches have emerged in modern business life. In case of new innovative market formulations strict boundaries between competition and collaboration have been blurred to some extent. Business sector innovations are not only investigated within firms as a reaction to outside competitive forces but as a consequence of company co-operations and interactions business networks evolve that are characterised by specific features. As a result of this unique and special resources become available to business partners. The developing of inter-organisational relationships and the maintenance of the long-term co-operations require mutual trust, reciprocity and unhierarchical production structure. With the partnership all involved parties can increase their competitiveness. Leading sector of the economy in the 21st century is biotechnology. It searches answers for the most crucial problems of the humanity. It concentrates on disease treatment, improving life quality, up-to-date and healthy food production, as well as solving the problems of environmental pollution. As a consequence of new innovative results this branch stands in the focal point of interest of the society all around the world. Biotechnology belongs to one of the most innovative, knowledge intensive branches. special attention is paid on its development and on its results. All these encouraged me to analyse and make a clustering among companies in the biotechnological industry from the perspective of co-operation motivating factors.
