Nowadays, the industrial agglomeration is the trend about the development of cultural industry in the world. The strategic concept about the industrial development includes the industrial agglomeration and the instauration of cultural industry park. Cultural industry cluster is an interdisciplinary research subject, which refers to economy, geography and statistics and so on, but the research of which is few at present. In this study, I investigate the relation between inter-organizational knowledge-sharing and agglomeration effects in cultural industry cluster from the management point of view.In this research, I choose inter-organizational knowledge-sharing and agglomeration effects in cultural industry cluster as the principal line of the study, because inter-organizational knowledge-sharing plays an important role in the process of the agglomeration effects in cultural industry cluster. This research defines the inter-organizational knowledge-sharing,and then explains network externality as an intermediary role between the relationship of the inter-organizational knowledge sharing and industry agglomeration in cultural industry cluster. That is to say, inter-organizational knowledge sharing has a great impact on agglomeration effects by the network externality in cultural industry cluster. The purpose of this research is discussing inter-organizational knowledge-sharing how to affect industry agglomeration in cultural industry cluster and discussing inter-organizational knowledge-sharing how to affect industry agglomeration in cultural industry cluster through network externality.The research objects of this study are the firms in cultural industry cluster in Shaanxi province.With survey method, the research construction and the related assumptions have been tested, applying the method of Factor analysis and the method of Canonical Correlation analysis. Through the method of Factor analysis, the variable knowledge sharing is classified as knowledge search and knowledge transfer two factors, the variable network externality is classified as network size and network strength two factors, the variable industry agglomeration is classified as vertical cooperation, level competition, level cooperation, resources sharing and geographical aggregation five factors.Further, the results are the correlation coefficient of the canonical variables between inter-organization knowledge-sharing and industrial agglomeration is 0.533 the correlation coefficient of the first pair of canonical variables between network externality and industrial agglomeration is 0.581,the second pair of which is 0.519,the third pair of which is 0.473,the correlation coefficient of the first pair of canonical variables between inter-organization knowledge-sharing and network externality is 0.533,the second pair of which is 0.396.Finally, the results are:There is a degree of positive correlation between inter-organizational knowledge-sharing and industry agglomeration in cultural industry cluster. Knowledge transfer the characterized variable of knowledge-sharing promotes industry agglomeration, but knowledge search the characterized variable of knowledge-sharing doesn't promote industry agglomeration. There is greater degree positive correlation between network externality and industry agglomeration in cultural industry cluster. Network size and network strength the characterized variables of network externality promote industry agglomeration. There is greater degree positive correlation between inter-organizational knowledge-sharing and industry agglomeration through network externality in cultural industry cluster. Knowledge search the characterized variable of knowledge-sharing promotes industry agglomeration through network size and also network strength. Knowledge transfer the characterized variable of knowledge-sharing promotes industry agglomeration through network size and also network strength.Finally, this research demonstrates that inter-organizational knowledge-sharing plays an important role in the process of the agglomeration effects in cultural industry cluster with the successful case Overseas Chinese Town.Knowledge-sharing undoubtedly is the best model of management knowledge in cultural industry cluster. It is inevitable choice to establish specific strategy and vision about knowledge-sharing, and to help all employees recognize the importance of knowledge-sharing in the cluster, and then to promote roundly the run of knowledge-sharing and to establish learning cultural industry cluster.
