Empowering industrial clusters to become globally competitive engines of innovation, growth, and industrial leadership.
The Transitioning Industrial Clusters (TIC) initiative convenes industry leaders, governments, and institutions to accelerate the transformation of industrial regions. We believe industrial clusters, where businesses, infrastructure, talent, and communities come together, are uniquely positioned to drive innovation, strengthen economic resilience, and unlock new pathways for growth.
By fostering collaboration and a shared vision among stakeholders, TIC helps industrial clusters unlock opportunities in digital transformation, new energy systems, circular resource solutions, and workforce development.
Our framework
The TIC initiative is building a variety of supporting assets, resources and events across four strategic areas focused on accelerating cluster development wherever they are in their journey:
