The new context of the competitiveness of companies, which is influenced by the new prototype of local management, is the consequence of profound changes, which are intensified by the crisis of the "Ford model" of the production, and of the world economic model which caused the increase in the interest by the agglomerations of companies, in activities which are considered flexible, and which influence the organization of the urban hierarchy. This new scenario brought the competitive news conditions for the agglomerations of companies, in order to impose a new challenge: adoption of the networks ambiances, in the study of these agglomerates. Thus, this article has the goal to bring back the urban network analysis to concepts of local grouping of companies and the formation of networks ambiances to protect, to structure an ideal model, that it is able to be the hearth of the concept of networks ambiances, as a new theoretical base for the studies linked with local competitiveness of industrial agglomerations. Therefore, this work was developed in the concept of study of a documented case of the commune of Holambra (SP), which means to
classify based on several stages suggested by STATRE (1994), with the application of a qualitative research. The elaborate theoretical base in this study allowed a broad analysis of the actual competitive context of the commune which, today, don’t have a identity defined in the socio-economic local direction.
