Cluster innovation capabilities: Concept, structure and evolution

Based on capability-based view and evolutionary theory, this paper defines the connotation of cluster innovation capabilities (CIC), and constructs a conceptual model of CIC¿s structure, which involves both static/dynamic levels and contains five internal dimensions. Besides, the basic logic of CIC evolution is also presented. As a result, a preliminary theoretic framework of CIC is constructed based on the aforementioned works.
