    Este artículo analiza la naturaleza de la relación entre las prácticas de recursos humanos de alto rendimiento (PRHAR), la innovación y el rendimiento financiero en el contexto de los clústeres geográficos.

    Debido a la importancia que tiene la innovación como elemento dinamizador en los clústeres, se propone que la relación entre las PRHAR y el rendimiento está mediada por la innovación en este contexto territorial.

    Este trabajo analiza además la influencia de determinadas características del clúster geográfico en el desarrollo de prácticas y capacidades relacionadas con las PRHAR y la innovación. En primer lugar, los resultados confirman la mediación de la innovación en la relación entre las PRHAR y el rendimiento.

    Además, los resultados indican que la no redundancia en la red de contactos del directivo principal de la empresa y la rivalidad local percibida se relacionan positivamente con la innovación pero no se relacionan con la implantación de las PRHAR.

    This paper studies the nature of the relationship between high involvement work practices (HIWPs), innovation and performance in the context of geographical clusters. We propose and test the mediating role of firm�s innovation in the relationship between HIWPs and firm�s financial performance in clusters.

    This paper also studies the influence of a number of geographical cluster features on the development of competitive capabilities related to HIWPs and innovation. Results support that non-redundancy in the manager�s contacts network and local rivalry foster innovative capabilities in clusters but not HIWPs
