Ahmedabad: Ahmedabad-based Cluster Pulse has successfully developed an information and communication technology (ICT) cluster of 23 IT start-ups in Switzerland. Known for its cluster development expertise, Cluster Pulse – an international trade consulting firm which is a group company of the city-based Global Network – had been working with start-ups for a year to set up an ICT cluster in Switzerland.
“We were contacted by Switzerland’s IT industry representatives to help them in developing an ICT cluster. We recently completed the cluster development project, which we believe will help these start-ups generate better business,” said Jagat Shah, chief executive officer of Global Network and Cluster Pulse.
The company has been working on similar projects in China, Uganda, Ghana and Canada. Under an agreement signed with these countries, Cluster Pulse will assist small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in these countries to develop fan, ICT, telecom and agricultural clusters, respectively. Representatives from these countries approached it after observing the company’s cluster development work.
Meanwhile, Cluster Pulse is also part of a $120 million (over Rs 500 crore) World Bank-led multi-agency project for financing and developing SMEs in India. Under the project, Cluster Pulse is in the process of offering business development services (BDS) by developing clusters of the engineering and machine tools industries of Rajkot in Gujarat.
