Sumario:The spatial concentration of companies and industries tends to attract new businesses to the same location, generating productive and economic agglomerations. Studies are conducted to identify the consequences, especially the benefits of economic agglomeration. This study aims to analyze geographical agglomerations based on the economic performance of municipalities in the state of Santa Catarina from 2012 to 2020 through spatial autocorrelation. The spatial dependence test was performed using the Global and Local Moran's index. The results reveal the formation of agglomerations with spatially autocorrelated municipalities, both with high economic performance (high-high) and with low performance (low-low) with a stable pattern over the period. The study contributes to understanding regional disparities in economic performance, highlighting the role of agglomerations and wages as relevant factors. The research demonstrates the need for public policies that consider regional disparities in the state, aiming to promote development in all regions.
