A Multi-case Study of Green Port-adjacent Industrial Cluster Development Based on Grounded Theory

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: This paper adopts a multi-case analysis approach, selecting the port-adjacent industrial clusters in Ningbo, China, Rotterdam, Netherlands, and Tokyo Bay, Japan, as exemplary cases for study. It collects multi-source data and information from academic literature, official channels, news reports, and social media. By applying the three-level coding process of Grounded Theory, it delves into successful practices of these cases in constructing and developing green port-adjacent industrial clusters, and extracts the valuable experiences of them. Based on this, a series of strategic conclusions aimed at promoting the development of green port-adjacent industrial clusters are summarized, providing useful references and insights for the formation and development pathways of port-adjacent industrial clusters in other regions.
