Abstract

Entrepreneurship is recognized as an essential factor in the enhancement of the economic situation by creating new employment and income opportunities. Technological entrepreneurship has an important role in the process of creating a regional economy. When there are many technological organizations in a country, and the level of technological entrepreneurship is high, it has a positive impact on the country in which the organizations exist. The need for technological entrepreneurship is because technology-based industries are expanding rapidly and are replacing traditional industries. The purpose of this study was to identify the factors affecting the design of the technological entrepreneurship capabilities model by considering the sustainable competitive advantage in dairy industries cooperatives in the north of Iran using a structural interpretive approach. This was qualitative research with a meta-analytical approach. The statistical population of this study was 50 theoretical and experimental experts in the field of the dairy industry in Mazandaran and Golestan provinces. The research data collection tool was a purposive interview. Data were analyzed using the Fuzzy Delphi method and fuzzy analytic network process (ANP). The results of technological entrepreneurship capability screening identified 36 indicators and 5 components, and 30 indicators and 4 components, with the name of sustainable competitive advantage, as factors affecting technological entrepreneurship capabilities. Based on these results, it can be claimed that technological entrepreneurship capabilities can be derived from a sustainable competitive advantage in the industry and by creating a suitable environment to strengthen technological entrepreneurship and the economic prosperity of the country.
