        Startups are usually built around innovative ideas, and mentors serve as watchdogs and entrepreneurs in the creation and growth of startups. The purpose of this research was to design a mentoring model for the development of startups in food industry. The research method was mixed employing sequential-exploratory design, grand-theoretical method and applied-developmental goal. Through purposeful theoretical sampling, in the qualitative section, 15 academic experts in the field of entrepreneurship management and food industry were selected. In the quantitative section, using stratified random sampling, 384 entrepreneurs, mentors and students active in food industry startups were recruited who answered a researcher-made questionnaire. The qualitative analysis was performed with five rounds of interviews to reach saturation and theoretical consensus for open, axial and selective coding of mentoring model categories in food industry startups, the quantitative analysis of which was performed with Smart pls‌ (2) statistical software. The paradigm pattern of research was established in 4 axes, 29 categories, 193 items and 6 constructs including: causal conditions, central phenomena, strategies, contextual conditions, intervening conditions and consequences. The relationship between causal condition structures and central phenomenon, central phenomenon and strategies, contextual conditions and strategies, intervening conditions and strategies and strategies and consequencies of mentoring development was found to be positive and significant (T ≤ 2.58), and research model fit was assessed as strong (GOF = 0.682). Therefore, it can be concluded that the managers and policymakers of the country's food industry can benefit from the consequences of mentoring development in the startups of the country's food industry by implementing the antecedents of the research model and implementing its strategies.

        Purpose: Organizations today operate in an uncertain, complex, and rapidly changing environment that necessitates the development of capabilities and capacities for competitive advantage. The aim of this research is to present a model for the development of technological startups to enhance the dynamics of extra-organizational navigation mechanisms. Methodology: The research adopts an exploratory objective and a mixed-method approach (qualitative-quantitative). The qualitative research population consists of experts and top managers of industrial companies listed on the stock exchange, with 20 purposively selected participants, and sampling continued until theoretical saturation was achieved.Within the quantitative segment, the sample comprises 500 individuals drawn from the academic faculty, senior executives, middle managers, and industry experts associated with firms listed on the Tehran Stock Exchange. The sample size of 217 individuals was determined using Cochran's formula for the period spanning 2012 to 2022. Findings: The results indicate that constraints on financial resources (research and development budgets) and risk-sharing, the transition towards the digital economy synchronized with regional and global developments, market penetration processes, increasing competitiveness, and the formation of an economic scale for product development, as well as social and cultural transformations such as the emergence of an educated middle class, underscore the necessity of strategic thinking in organizations commensurate with changes in the operating environment as key factors in the development of startups. Moreover, contextual and intervening factors include 10 and 5 categories, respectively, comprising macroeconomic conditions and constraints in attracting foreign investment, and the inherent complexity of innovation and commercialization, especially in advanced technology domains. Furthermore, strategies encompassing 16 components, including adopting an agile startup approach and risk-taking and crisis management. Additionally, consequential categories include creating value for businesses following a market-oriented approach through resource integration and product development. In the quantitative section, the conceptual research model was tested, and the research hypothesis was confirmed. Originality/Scientific Contribution: The research findings can contribute to enhancing competition among companies listed on the stock exchange, and it is expected that the establishment of extra-organizational navigation mechanisms will effectively assist in the implementation of the board of directors' tasks and compliance with legal requirements.
