Five factors proposed by the literature were evaluated: employment concentration, business agglomeration, institutional factor, cooperation factor and community; adapted to the existing methodologies in light of the available data. The research verified the presence of the five factors and determined the existence of a touristic industrial district in La Fortuna and Monteverde, but it was not possible to identified the individual contribution of each factor to their formation. |
