Industry clusters are areas of dynamic growth and innovation, as the concentration of talent and capital generate faster advances. Typically industry clusters take many decades to evolve, as evidenced by London's Fleet Street, New York's Wall Street, Hollywood, and Silicon Valley.

But China's approach to industry clustering was targeted and deliberate, from the top down. What's more, it took place during China's urbanization: the cities themselves did not yet exist, let alone as specialized industrial hubs. An extreme example is Shenzhen, now the 2nd largest Science and Technology supercluster in the world, while just 30 years ago it was an unknown clump of rural villages.

China now leads the world in industrial clusters of all types, and notably in Science and Technology where double-digit growth is being realized across many of them. And with China on track to bring another 400 million to cities over coming decades, these advances are very likely to continue.

產業群聚是動態成長和創新的領域，因為人才和資本的集中會產生更快的進步。 倫敦的艦隊街、紐約的華爾街、好萊塢和矽谷都證明了產業群聚通常需要幾十年的時間才能形成。

但中國的產業群聚方式是自上而下、有針對性、經過深思熟慮的。 更重要的是，它發生在中國的城市化過程中：城市本身還不存在，更不用說作為專業的工業中心了。 一個極端的例子是深圳，如今它已成為世界第二大科技超級集群，而就在30年前，它還是一片默默無聞的鄉村。

目前，中國在各類產業群聚方面處於世界領先地位，特別是在科技領域，許多產業群聚都實現了兩位數的成長。 隨著中國預計在未來幾十年內將另外 4 億人口帶入城市，這些進步很可能會持續下去.
