Conference Object Information and Communication Technology Sector Strategy Map of Izmir(LookUs Scientific, 2013) Tuğlular, Tuğkan; Tekir, Selma; Velibeyoğlu, KorayThis study aims to understand current dynamics of the Izmir's ICT sector by looking at its dynamics and mapping the spatial distribution of the firms. It is based on series of analysis produced for Izmir Development Agency in 2012 within the frame of preparation of 2014-2023 Izmir Regional Development Plan. It conducts a Delphi survey to support situation knowledge as well as trend prediction for the next 10 years' period. Furthermore, gap analysis is performed to measure the margin between the current situation of the ICT sector and future trends predicted by experts. The study also maps Izmir's ICT sector's location preferences based on Izmir Chamber of Commerce's publicly available web-based database. It illustrated that ICT sector's trend largely based on centripetal and spontaneously developed clusters placed in the central part of the city. On the other hand, planned technology regions and science parks are relatively immature and need to be developed. Within the light of this dichotomy this study proposes a strategy map to Izmir's ICT sector.Book Part Creative Urban Regions: Harnessing Urban Technologies To Support Knowledge City Initiatives Preface(IGI Global Publishing, 2008) Yiğitcanlar, Tan; Velibeyoğlu, Koray; Baum, Scott[No abstract available]Book Part Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Organizing: Spontaneously Developed Urban Technology Precincts(Edward Elgar Publishing Ltd., 2012) Çevikayak, Gülnur; Velibeyoğlu, Koray[No abstract available]Article Citation - WoS: 12Regional Acupuncture for İzmir Peninsula: Creating Capital Web for Creative Eco-Tourism(Scibulcom Ltd., 2016) Velibeyoğlu, KorayRural socio-economic development has gained utmost importance in Turkish Metropolitan Municipalities within the frame of recent legal changes extending the boundary of such municipalities towards their larger rural hinterland. Beforehand, Izmir Metropolitan Municipality had been started 'Izmir Peninsula Sustainable Development Strategy' in 2013 as a model of their local development agenda based on the principles of 'Urla-Cesme-Karaburun Peninsula Local Development Idea Competition' held in 2008.

The major contribution of this study is to illustrate a model of networked integration strategy by using 'creative' eco-tourism opportunities of Izmir Peninsula Region.
