SUMMARY
Japanese LCD TV maker Toshiba recently paid US$46 million for a 19.9% stake in
an LPL (LG.Philips) LCD module plant (LPLWR) located in Poland. At the time,
LPL had announced growing losses in the third quarter of 2006. The market saw
LPL's move as an effort to improve its financial health and strengthen ties
with LCD TV panel customers. This alliance also shows that LCD TV industry
clusters are starting to migrate to new locations, including Eastern Europe.
This report will analyze the emergence of LCD TV industry clusters in Eastern
Europe.
