Abstract :
Complexity, which is a key feature of many organizations' environments, has forced them to use external knowledge in addition to collaborating with each other and combining it with internal sources of knowledge. In this regard, it is necessary to provide an industrial agglomeration model to promote technological innovation in Iranian industries. By selecting grounded theory research method, this research explains and develops a conceptual model in the field of industrial agglomeration model to promote technological innovation in Iranian industries. The research method is mixed and in the qualitative part, interviews were conducted with 14 related experts. All the information extracted from the interviews was revealed in the form of concepts and categories and the connections between them. Finally, based on the concepts and categories developed, the research model was developed. In the quantitative method of the model, using the fuzzy Delphi method and distributing the questionnaire in three stages, the opinions of experts in the field, the importance of industrial density indicators and technological innovation and expert consensus, and prioritization of research indicators were examined. Considering the results obtained by experts and their agreed consensus in the development of industrial estates and the formation of industrial density to promote technological innovation in Iran's industrial estates, the components of government support for small and medium industries, government tax protection policies (for example, granting Tax exemption) and the natural benefits of the region are jointly ranked first and the rest of the components are ranked in the following.
