“A Business Cluster is a collection of companies with
complementary skills. For example, you might find a car mechanic
located next to a wheel alignment and tyre repair company. Whilst
they are independent businesses, they may refer work to each other
and customers may find it more convenient to get services.

“Australian IT Service Providers Digital Armour Corporation,
Syntonic Corporation Pty Ltd and PretaWeb Pty Ltd are the founding
members of the Open Source Business Cluster. The initiative is
supported by an establishment grant from the NSW Government (via
the Department for State and Regional Development), which has
embraced Open Source Software and Open Standards in recent
years.”
