Analyzing the sanctions action in the ambidextrous business cluster dispute using game theory

Business clusters evolve as a spatial focus of firms with shared opportunities and threats in a nonlinear behavior, with a multiple feedback mechanism between cluster actors, and require attention to ambidexterity- exploiting of current capabilities and exploring future opportunities- in order to survive in a complex and competitive environment. In recent decades, the harsh sanctions of the arrogant powers have been one of the obstacles to accessing the world's latest technical knowledge and technology to help economic growth and development, which has been considered a source of serious controversy in reducing the competitiveness of enterprises. In this study, in order to investigate the issue of sanctions in interaction with other actors, information collection through reading articles, policy documents, reports and receiving expert opinions through interviews has been considered. Due to the complexity of this conflict, using a game theory model called the graph model, the interactions and preferences between different actors in the business cluster are modeled and the most probable results are presented. According to the analysis, the government, business clusters and scientific and research centers have an improved equilibrium point, but there is no preferential financing for the centers to change the current situation.
