Territory Management in View of Cluster Potential

The experience of developed countries shows that innovation clusters accelerate the socio-economic development of territories. The article analyzes the availability of a cluster potential in the region using shift-shared method and the localization index. Calculations have shown that the Novosibirsk region of Russia has a pronounced cluster potential in the field of trade, but so far the growing IT cluster has not had any significant effect on the regional economy. Since at present there are problems associated with the formation and stimulation of cluster growth, the authors offer recommendations on management cluster development at the federal, regional and local levels.
