metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: Th e biopharmaceutical industry has always been a highly concentrated sector of the economy.
  Th is industry became a matter of great interest in Russia when import-substituting programmes
  grew in relevance. Th e implementation of the Pharma-2020 strategy, along with the stable indicators
  of the economic growth across the industry, facilitated the creation of cluster initiatives
  — both innovative and innovative local ones — in certain regions of the Russian Federation.
  A necessary condition for the creation of cluster initiatives is the existence of a high industrial
  concentration in a rather limited area. Th e paper proposes a methodology that can be used
  to check whether cluster initiatives match geographical clusters; it also demonstrates how this
  methodology can be applied to the cluster initiatives created in Russia between 2008 and 2018 in
  order to verify how they match the geographical clusters established on the basis of spatial indices
  of industrial concentration. We established that out of twenty-four biopharmaceutical clusters
  considered, eight clusters were created in areas where the relevant industry is not geographically
  concentrated. We found regions in which geographical concentration of the biopharmaceutical
  industry is rather high, although regional governments did not launch cluster initiatives of the
  related industries. We analyzed the structure of the biopharmaceutical cluster initiatives and revealed
  that the number of participants is insuffi cient; the share of industrial plants is low; the industry
  is not specialized enough; small and medium plants are involved only at an average level.
