Just recently the World Bank published a new report on cluster activities in Africa, showing the potential fo economic growth in the region through the right use of knowledge, human capital and technology.
Although the region still faces many challenges, it is also generating pockets of economic vitality in the form of enterprise clusters that are contributing to national, regional, and local productivity. Through case examples from Ghana, Kenya, Mauritius, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, and Uganda, this book provides an understanding of how these dynamic enterprise clusters were formed and have evolved, and how knowledge, human capital, and technology have contributed to their success.

You can purchase the book directly from the website of the World Bank.
