This study is a descriptive-correlational applied research. Its sample includes 65 cases in four industries of automobile، electrical machines، chemical and medical products. In selecting the given corporations we used the census method in which the data of 42 corporations were analyzed. Questionnaires and secondhand data of corporate (records and documents) were used as instruments for data collection. We have used Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling in Partial Least Square (PLS) method for data analysis. The results show that knowledge-based capital along with three dimensions including human capital، organizational capital، and social capital، plays a mediating role in corporate entrepreneurship-performance relationship. It means that corporate entrepreneurship will result in the extension of knowledge-based capital which in turn enhances the corporate performance.
