16 International consultants with expertise in clusters promotion have rates that central or local governments can not afford. Local consultants have no experience in clusters promotion: They learned while doing it. The academic sector has shown interest on clusters promotion but lacks real life expertise. Need to strengthen local consulting skills.

17 Strategic studies and guidelines making Analysis of: Strengths Weakness Opportunities Treats Shock Therapy for agents of a cluster. All documents are available for public consultation at the internet: Programas de promoción Programa de promoción de agrupamientos industriales. Documents are only a first stage.

18 Agents participation Initially, the federal government played an important role to: Suggest local authorities and private sector, the implementation of regionally based strategies to boost clusters development. Research and disseminate successful experiences regarding clusters development and promotion, both at national and international level. Suggest a working methodology.

19 The federal government reallocated resources and dedicated an office to clusters promotion as its main activity. The role of this staff is to act as facilitator or catalytic agent.

20 In addition, the federal government, trained SECOFI s staff of the state offices to boost the program. State governments participate through the Ministries of Economic Development.
