This paper is the first part of the report on findings of research on policies for industrial cluster promotion in the German federal state North Rhine-Westphalia (NRW). The author carried out field research in September 2001 with his colleagues. He visited the Institut für Mittelstandsforschung Bonn (IfM), obtaining information on its activities as well as on outlines of SMEs and start-ups in Germany in general and especially in NRW in particular. Because the IfM offers basic knowledge on the situation of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), its activities are important for the implementation of SME policies. According to researches by the IfM (2000), NRW is paramount for start-ups among the federal states. It has maintained a policy known as "GO!" (Gründungsoffensive, or start-ups offensive) for the activation of regional and local economies since the end of l995. In regard to the absolute number of increase in start-ups, the evaluation of the IfM is correct. By contrast, however, if the federal states are compared from the standpoint of start-ups in ratio to their populations, the inhabitants in NRW appear to be less imbued with the spirit of entreprenuership than the Bavarians. Nonetheless, the ratio in NRW is clearly higher than its equivalents in Baden-Württemberg and Hesse. Among NRW local regions, the metropolitan axis along the Rhine (Cologne, Düsseldorf and Bonn) takes pride of place for the greatest start-up activity. The index offered by the author in this paper merely represents one among numerous possible viewpoints. In order to evaluate policy effects upon regional economies, it is necessary to consider the situation from various differing angles.
