Abstract: An approach by the Proximity School. The objective of this paper is to analyze the conditions for the emergence of collaboration between firms grouped in a creative cluster. According to the school of proximity, the dynamics of a cluster are characterized by the gathering of two forms of proximity: geographical proximity and organized proximity. A quantitative study, a network analysis and a qualitative study were conducted to analyze the contribution of different forms of proximity (social, cognitive, organizational, and institutional) to the emergence of collaborations between businesses. We highlight three main results: Collaborations between creative firms need Gatekeepers. They also need specific plans among them the way the place is structured plays a high role ; proximity of values appears as a strong condition of collaborations.
