Abstract

The article considers the role of international cluster in increasing the innovative potential and competitiveness of the economy. The traditional cluster theory of economic development defines the cluster as a mono-branch formation localized within a certain territory. The article notes that the network nature of the economy and the development of information and computer technologies have had an impact on the development of clusters, and the formation of international industrial clusters is taking place. The purpose of the study is to substantiate the methodological aspects of increasing the competitiveness of the economies of Russia and Belarus based on international industrial clusters formation in the context of cooperation in the framework of the union state. The integration of the Republic of Belarus into the world economic community has made it possible to use the cluster approach to increase the efficiency and competitiveness of economic systems in Belarus and Russia.
