  <dc:description xmlns:ns0="xml" ns0:lang="en">Purpose – The paper aims to investigate the role of specialization and agglomeration  forces on industry performance in an emerging market, namely, Thailand. In particular,  the impact of clusters and the influence of complexity will be tackled.  Design/methodology/approach – The methodology used is based on the work of  Delgado et al. (2014). Industries and clusters are assigned to a certain category  according to their respective level of specialization and complexity.  Performancemeasures are then computed for each category. Findings – It was found  that the agglomeration of similar industries and co-located and related industries  increase the performance of firms in terms of gross output per employee and  remuneration per employee. Moreover, the increase of performance induced by the  complexity level of an industry was closely related to the level of specialization.  Originality/value – Building on a cluster mapping, this study brings new insight on the  effect of specialization and agglomeration on performance in emerging markets. In  fact, the paper show how performance can be enhanced in less sophisticated and  developed economies.</dc:description>
