Accordingly, instead of relying on static models, every organization should update its business logic in line with environmental changes and customer expectations by utilizing the capabilities of technologies. The purpose of this study is provide a systematic approach to business model innovation based on using digital technologies.

 In the first phase, business model innovation components were extracted from 42 selected articles. Then, by survey method and by non-random and purposeful sampling of technology experts and fuzzy analysis of the received questionnaires, the application of digital technologies in the innovation components of the business model extracted in the first phase was presented.

 In the first phase, the components of the model were identified in the five categories, innovation in value network macro-activities, innovation in intra- organizational macro-activities, innovation in structure, innovation in governance and innovation in financial affairs and themes. Then, by extracting the views of experts in the field of technology regarding the application of digital technologies, including seven groups of platform, connectivity, Actor-based product, sensor-based data collection, analytical insight generation, analytical interaction and augmented interaction, the business model innovation framework is presented.

 The findings indicate in response to environmental dynamics and changes, innovation in what dimensions and components of the business model and using which group of digital technologies should be considered.

 Competitiveness is a key factor for evaluating the degree of success of countries, companies and industries in commercial, economic and political competitive fields. The purpose of this research is to identify the factors affecting the development of the competitiveness of innovative and start-up companies and to provide solutions for the development and improvement of their competitiveness.

 The current research has an interpretive philosophical basis and a fundamental orientation. The approach of this research is inductive and the qualitative method and strategy of grounded theory have been used to do it. Sampling was done theoretically using snowball and targeted methods. The research data were collected through semi-structured interviews with 14 experts, including managers of several successful export companies in East Azarbaijan and Ardabil provinces, university professors specializing in marketing and economics at Mohaghegh Ardabili University and Tabriz Branch Azad University.

 The results showed that causal factors (knowledge of market needs and adoption of marketing perspective), pivotal (creativity and innovation, research and development), contextual (environmental monitoring, legal infrastructure, financial and human resources), strategies (training and management methods) And the consequences (more profit and customer satisfaction) affect the development and improvement of competitiveness.

 The proposed model can be a guide for innovative and start-up companies to offer new products and services in order to increase competitiveness and active participation in international exhibitions

 The emergence of anti-production behaviors will lead to increased costs of the organization, reduced quality and quantity standards in products and services, waste and personal use of property and resources of the organization, reduced productivity and organizational performance of employees and increased workplace stress. This study identifies the antecedents and consequences of anti-production behaviors in knowledge-based and technology defense organizations.

 This research is applied in terms of purpose and is exploratory in terms of qualitative method. The research data included scientific articles and documents and interviews with experts of knowledge-based defense organizations. Sampling was done in a purposeful and judgmental way and a semi-structured interview was conducted with 14 people. The obtained data were analyzed using grounded theory method (Glaser's emergent approach) and MaxQD software. The validity of the research was obtained through the approval of the members and participants and its reliability was obtained from the participants' agreement method and the agreement coefficient was 81%.

 After analyzing the articles, documents and interviews, 544 primary codes were identified. In a multi-step process of coding, the antecedents of anti-productive behaviors in knowledge-based and technological organizations included four dimensions of managerial factors, organizational factors, socio-cultural factors, and individual factors, and the consequences of anti-productive behaviors included two individual and organizational dimensions.

 By identifying and controlling the antecedents of anti-productive behaviors in defense organizations, it is possible to manage and reduce anti-productive behaviors in these organizations, and accordingly, it will be possible to control and reduce the negative consequences of this type of behavior at the individual and organizational level.
