Competitiveness clusters are part of a national initiative designed to bring together the industrial, research, and educational players in a given region in order to favour innovation and the creation of new jobs. Montpellier Agglomération is involved with five of these specialised clusters.

• Eurobiomed

  The Eurobiomed competitiveness cluster (www.eurobiomed.org) was founded on January 1, 2009, resulting from the merger of the Orpheme competitiveness cluster and two clusters dedicated to life sciences, Holobiosud (Languedoc-Roussillon) and Bioméditerranée (PACA region). The goal was to create a single structure able serve the development needs of life sciences, companies, and research and development projects.
