In several regions, the software industry is organized in clusters, usually referred to as "knowledge cities" because of the growing importance of knowledge-intensive services in their economy. This paper has two primary objectives. First, it raises three major questions related to the attractiveness of different cities in Argentina and Brazil for hosting software companies and to their impact on local development. Second, a new taxonomy is proposed for grouping clusters according to their dominant business segment, ownership pattern and scope of operations. The purpose of this taxonomy is to encourage further studies and provide an exploratory analytical tool for analyzing software clusters. 2011 artículo científico 0034-7590 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=155117699003 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1551 RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas application/pdf Fundação Getulio Vargas RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.51
