  In this article, with the help of the value chain model, I explain the functioning of biotech clusters. The “cluster” phrase was originally defined by Porter. In my opinion, the problem with Porter’s and other classical definitions of a cluster is that they are static, whereas the main feature of clusters’ is actually their dynamic nature. This is the reason why the following should also be included in the definition:
  – clusters emerge in a turbulent way: processes cannot be foreseen due to the lack of linearity.
  – a cluster, however, is a kind of an arena, because dense and changing vertical input-output relations and connections between horizontal organizations always generate a sort of a need for change.
  – clusters cause changes in the innovation policy, as they support the evolution of a policy which is appropriate for cluster formation. That is, they act as catalysts for the formation of better conditions.
  Accordingly, Porter’s original definition needs modification.

  It is no exaggeration to say that the digital transformation can be seen as both a paradigm shifts and a real technological revolution (Perez, 2010, Mergel, et al., 2019). In order to get to know the preparedness of the Hungarian automotive industry players in the topic, we conducted an empirical research in October - December 2020. The main goal was to determine the level of automotive actors in the digital transformation process. Company leaders were primarily asked about their progress in the digital transition process, its opportunities and challenges, organizational culture, and potential human resource management responses. This study focuses on the digital transition concentrating on the following dimensions: strategy and leadership, human resources, business processes, supply chain, manufacturing, products and services. Based on the results, we classified the examined Hungarian automotive industry actors into clusters.

  Az informatika és a távközlés fejlődése lehetővé teszi egy sor értelmiségi-szakértői jellegű vállalati tevékenység kihelyezését távoli országokba. A piaci verseny arra kényszeríti a fejlett országokban dolgozó vállalatokat, hogy költségeik csökkentése érdekében ezt a lehetőséget valóban ki is használják. A mai "fehérgalléros" offshore outsourcing az innovációs hullámokkal együtt járó "kreatív rombolás" figyelemre méltó jelensége. A fejlődő országok körében megindult a verseny a kiszervezési megbízásokért, kikristályosodnak a kiszervezés jellegzetes üzleti modelljei. A folyamat megítélése ellentmondásos, a strukturális átalakulásoknak nyertesei és vesztesei egyaránt vannak.
