Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the extent to which information technology companies operating in technopoles adopt the principles that are expected of technopoles. In this context, a comprehensive literature review was conducted to identify the basic criteria that technopoles and the companies operating within them should adopt. In this context, the mission and vision statements of the companies in the technopoles operating in Turkey, whose web pages can be accessed, and if not, their “about” sections were accessed. This study, which is based on qualitative research methodology, analyzed the data through content analysis using MAXQDA 22 software package. The results of the study indicate that information technology companies operating in technopoles don’t sufficiently embrace the strategic values associated with technopoles. It is expected that the study will contribute to the literature with its multidisciplinary evaluations and analysis methods and be a source of inspiration for related studies.
