Abstract

The purpose of this study is to focus on the relationship between competitive advantage’s criterion of science and technology parks and incubators in order to identify factors with greater efficiency, focus on them, and develop them further in these centers. The key factors affecting the competitive advantage which prepared by our ex-study realized in the form of a DEMATEL questionnaire, and it was drawn up by experts. Questionnaires have been distributed via mail or presence in science and technology parks and experts’ office. The obtained results from the questionnaires on analysis of competitive advantage’s factors were evaluated by using Microsoft Excel, and the results of the review were modeled by yEd graph editor. Eventually, the obtained model was discussed and analyzed. In this research, the effectiveness and influence of each factor of competitive advantage in incubators and science and technology parks on the other factors are studied and the results are presented as chart and graph.
