Summary/Abstract: The article indicates the nature, goals, and the contemporary dimension of cluster internationalization. The paper characterizes the role of internationalization in the process of strengthening the competitiveness of the cluster in a turbulent environment. Assuming that internationalization is a process of operating across national boundaries, building relationships with foreign partners and expanding the scope of activities to foreign markets, the author emphasizes the need to develop a strategy of cluster’s internationalization which will be adequate for cluster’s needs and consistent with its development strategy. Basing on the results of secondary research as well as the author’s research experience, the article presents the selected best practices within the scope of cluster internationalization.
