Abstract

The Industrial Cluster Program in Japan is designed for the domestic development of new products by making its production systems for final consumption goods more sophisticated and more efficient, by leveraging its internationally competitive agglomeration of materials. parts, and equipment industries. But Industrial Cluster Program was initially implemented without adequate advance research or clear-cut objectives. Industrial clusters in rural areas outside the three largest metropolitan areas (Tokyo, Osaka, and Nagoya) in Japan should not evolve as Silicon Valleys or San Francisco and Boston areas. The primary objectives of these rural industrial clusters in Japan should be the qualitative upgrading of domestic factories to integrate development and production, despite the decline in the total number of production factories in Japan.
