Knowledge-based firms set $500m record in last year’s exports: Official
In a specialized meeting titled “Next Steps in Formulating the National Industrial Progress Document”, which was held at the 14th INOTEX Exhibition’s Governance and Legislation Forum in the capital Tehran, the participants stressed the critical importance of knowledge-based companies and the necessity of industrial policy for the country’s economic development.
Among the attendees were Amir Younesian, Barzin Jafartash Amiri (industrial policy researchers), and Mohsen Mohammadi (assistant to the deputy minister for industrial policy affairs).
During the meeting, Younesian highlighted the key role of knowledge-based companies as drivers of science and technology in Iran’s industrial progress.
He noted their $500 million export achievement last year, calling the figure “remarkable given the fledgling status of many of these firms.”
Younesian also underscored “the urgent need to develop science and technology infrastructure to support knowledge-based companies.”
