In today’s economy the ability of enterprises to compete and maintain long-term competitive advantage depends to a large degree on their possessing a talent for effectively creating knowledge and innovation. The article defines the influence of cluster structures on enterprise innovation, under the assumption that working in clusters creates and disseminates innovation. It also presents the theoretical implications of the relationship between innovation and clusters and their empirical verification presented in the literature on the subject. Research and theoretical analysis largely suggest that the presence of cluster structures has a beneficial effect on an enterprise’s level of innovation.
