Regional development in Romania involves direct action on post-suburbia, compact and complex cities as a system of systems, cluster coordinated at the macro level. When we talk about regions and other macroeconomic analysis we refer to clusters and we study the process that includes each stage of development and communication, activities organized in a certain way in order to properly analyze them. Through this article we want to demonstrate the regional development/evolution in Romania in all four industrial revolutions, with an emphasis on the "national goal" represented by IT (the third industrial revolution), the macroregional imbalances that generate territorial disparities, we’ll correlate these IT & C insertions with the unemployment rate and tertiary training of residents and those attracted from the neighborhood to work in this industry, namely the influence of the academic environment and the cluster focused on the production cycle as a value chain at the regional level rather than by SMEs.
