Abstract: This paper aims to understand the process of interorganisational learning (IOL) in spatial agglomeration. We propose an IOL model to analyse the horizontal relations between actors in different social spaces based on episodes of learning in a Brazilian stone-sector spatial agglomeration. We collected data on 81 participants and analysed them based on content analysis with NVivo 9. The main results highlight an IOL integrative model that presents: 1) the constituent elements of IOL; 2) the role played by different actors; 3) the relationships and the intensity of the bonds established between these actors.
