(Local Indicators of Spatial Association). Research data includes enterprise data taken from the statistics of provinces for the period from 2005 to 2019 in the Statistical Yearbook and spatial data extracted from GADM (Database of Global Administrative Areas). Research results show that the small and medium-sized enterprises in Vietnam lack agglomeration. For the few existing business clusters, most are in the form of a "Marshallian cluster" model, represented in the form of industrial clusters. In addition, the agglomeration of large enterprises mainly takes place according to the model of the "Satellite Platform cluster" model, which is represented in the form of industrial parks with the concentration of large companies and corporations participating in the global value chain. Although foreign small and medium-sized enterprises have begun to participate in the Vietnamese market, Vietnamese small and medium-sized enterprises have increasingly met the requirements of large corporations and multinational companies, becoming large companies’ partners and gradually integrating into their supply chains. This leads to the emergence of small and medium-sized enterprise clusters besides those of large enterprises. ER -
