Summary/Abstract: With globalization, which is one of the concepts that left its mark on the 21st century, the concept of competitiveness gained more importance, and changing needs, lifestyle, technology, the environment forced companies and regions and cities to compete in an environment that requires more innovation. It is argued that the way to achieve sustainable competitiveness in the global economy is no longer able to respond to distant competitors, but increasingly locality. The importance of localization is increasing day by day and the tendencies of localization are getting stronger. Cities have now become places that compete with each other or have to compete with each other. This study, which deals with city competitiveness, is a theoretical study prepared as a result of the local and foreign literature review. Descriptive and explanatory studies on city competitiveness is an important study to eliminate this shortcoming, especially when it is seen that it is insufficient in domestic literature.
