The study aims to identify key actors in the value chain, competencies, and areas to be developed in the cluster ecosystem. The industrial scope of the study covers technical textiles and composite materials together, as, in many ways, Bursa enjoys the presence of sophisticated companies and strong infrastructure to specialize further and be one of the world’s leading centres for the industry. Industry-level value chain analysis detailed each value chain process in terms of its main competencies and development areas. The value chain analysis reviewed the parameters of the Diamond Model to form the basis of a strategic vision for the future. Based on the findings, the report has an early-stage action plan for the cluster management team to undertake steps in the very short term, which can go hand in hand with the strategic development stage.}, number = {02}, urldate = {2025-04-26}, journal = {Industria Textila}, author = {Karahan, Mehmet and Ari, Ali̇ and Karahan, Nevi̇N}, month = apr, year = {2025}, pages = {147--159}, }
