Identify and inquiry into the manufacturing industrial clusters development in Wuhan

The paper studies the development of industrial clusters in Wuhan on the basis of former research results. At first, the author reviews the relevant industrial clusters theory and empirical research which has proved that industrial clusters achieve great success in regional economic development and they are a kind of effective model for enhancing region competitiveness. And then, the paper identifies the existing industry clusters in Wuhan through analyzing the city´s statistical data combined with investigation. And based on the results, the author points out that three policy implications should be put out. The policy makers should pick out rather than create an industrial cluster; provide institution other than materials; focus on the industries which offer more marginal outputs.
