Abstract Sharing of resources is connected with several issues needed to be managed appropriately. Therefore, possibilities of sharing of information, knowledge, technologies and other items in various organisations and particularly in economic clusters are introduced. The advantages, disadvantages and the potential of sharing for the competitiveness and efficiency enhancement are discussed. Based on brainstorming, semi-structured interviews and statistical analysis, the case study compares the real processes within the particular cluster with theoretical assumptions. The results reveal that the potential of sharing is not effectively used. Moreover, these confirm the differences between participants considering the specific attributes. The findings in form of recommendations for improvements are provided
