  3. NorCOM (1)A technology based cluster The ‘inner’ Core: • 35-40 telecommunications firms • Knowledge institutions (AAU) • Bridging institutions & venture capital (NOVI)

  4. NorCOM (2) • 1997-99 a CLUB • Firms and university researchers, • Hosted by a science park, NOVI • www.norcom.dk • 2000- a BUSINESS ASSOCIATION • 25 firms & university researchers, • Hosted by NOVI • Financed by member firms

  5. NorCOM (3)‘Core’ technology focus • Microwaves - Radiocommunications • 1) Mobile and cordless communications (equipment) • GSM, 2+ (GPRS, EDGE) • DECT • WAP, Bluetooth • UMTS • 2) Components for mobile terminals • 3) Mobile services • 4) Maritime communications and navigation • communication (VHF, UHF & satellite) • navigation (satellite) • [5) Wired communications]

  6. Denmark • Regional specialisation – The ICT sector 1999

  7. Cluster evolution

  8. Technological life cycles The technological life cycles of the mobile communication industry

  9. Regional Clustering • The dynamics of a regional cluster • Cluster analysis dimensions • Geography • Breadth • Depth • University research and education • Ownership structure

  10. Technological life cycles • The NMT (1G) life cycle – an embryo of a cluster formed • The GSM (2G) life cycle – the regional cluster consolidated • Is UMTS (3G) a major threat? • Is ‘4G’ a major opportunity?

  11. Disruptive Technology S-curves for the established and disruptive technology
