TCI wishes you a Happy New Year!

Dear Cluster Enthousiasts!

We from TCI wish you a good start into the new year and many successfull cluster stories! We are looking forward to this year with many exciting new activities - starting this month when we are going to meet with the host of the Annual Conference in Hong Kong (November, 9-11), the Institute of the University of Hong Kong, we are expecting several regional conferences, among them in Yorkshire and Slovenia and we will have several meetings to discuss on other future activities of TCI, like training, support of research activities like the Whitebook on cluster policies, further cluster knowledge services and membership extension. And we are especially looking forward to our annual conference in Hong Kong, which will give us a wonderful insight into the Chinese world of clusters.

In representation of our Executive Committee and TCI Staff our best wishes for this year!
