"Construction industry is a highly competitive line of business, but even here there is a broad field for cooperation. Analysis of potential of entities interested in creating the Eastern Construction Cluster in the Eastern Poland macro region done by Polish Consulting Association indicates that most entities perceive construction sector as an average industry in terms of development, but with great prospects. (...). It is clearly visible that the biggest problem of most companies from Eastern Poland macro region is the fact that they are too small to compete for lucrative contracts, introduce innovation or develop dynamically. Entrepreneurs themselves understand the reason for establishing a network of cooperation in  form of a cluster, and this is essential.”
