Abstract

Among the responses to the challenges of the crisis of 2008, reindustrialisation has emerged as a potential tool of economic development in more and more developed countries, regarding which the European Commission has accepted several proposals. In Hungary, the reindustrialisation strategy, the Irinyi Plan was drawn up in 2016, which includes healthcare industry as a sector to be developed specifically. Healthcare industry is quite heterogeneous, but several of its activities (e.g. pharmaceuticals) qualify as knowledge intensive within manufacturing and is characterised by high added value. According to surveys, healthcare industry is one of the main target areas of smart specialisation strategies in the European Union. In the present study I map the spatial distribution of each class of health industry in Hungary. I address the question how the spatiality of healthcare industry classes developed between 2008 and 2014, and, furthermore, which class is expected to be able to facilitate economic growth. I use local and global spatial inequality indicators to study spatial distribution, helping to analyse concentration and specialisation phenomena at the level of small regions.
