The study concerns a natural cluster that arises as a consequence of the development of Euroregion. Each Euroregion has a "form" of a cluster "inscribed" into the philosophy of its functioning, which in turn creates a new management structure for the area covered by Euroregion. To document the above statement, the study attempted to compare the characteristics of Euroregion and a cluster, to describe mutual dependencies and convergences between them, which was included, among others, in the form of synthetic tables (Tables 4 and 5). Euroregion itself is a cluster, and it manages its subordinate area through Euroregional institutions. The term "natural" stems from the fact that Euroregion as a region bears the signs of naturalness, as it is created from the bottom up due to natural causes and motives, which through formalisation take on a specific shape of the structure with its institutions. Euroregion itself (a natural cluster), in addition to its management capabilities over the region, is also managed by the institutions representing it (described here is the Association of European Border Regions - AEBR). As a result, Euroregion as a natural cluster manages on its own and is subject to being managed.
