E4 (Ifor Ffowcs-Williams) is one of the most experienced and knowledgeable "cluster builders" in the world and we were delighted to be able to use his skills here in Dunedin.  Our cluster development programme is based on the work E4 has done for us - and it's working!  E4 understands business and the challenges of co-operating to compete.  Practical experience married to theoretical knowledge.

Dunedin's cluster programme has delivered excellent results for the economic development of Dunedin.  We have a number of cluster activities on the go, and the clusters themselves are all at different stages of their developmental continuum, but the benefits to Dunedin in terms of business activity, job growth and economic returns have been significant.’
