The Iran International Innovation District (IIID) hosted the inaugural "Entrepreneurs' Brainstorming" session on digital economy resilience on July 23, 2026, bringing together senior policymakers, private sector leaders, and knowledge-based tech firms, the IIID Media Center reported.

The strategic dialogue, held at Pardis Technology Park (PTP), was designed to foster consensus and map out a sustainable development path for the country's digital economy.

Mojtaba Jabbaripour, Deputy for Innovation Development at PTP, highlighted the digital economy as a core pillar of the region's tech development strategy, emphasizing that supporting knowledge-based companies in this sector remains a top priority for the park.

Farzin Fardis, a member of the Board of Representatives of the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, noted that the initiative is a collaborative effort involving:

  • The Strategic Deputy of the Presidency
  • The Iran International Innovation District (IIID)
  • The Tehran Chamber of Commerce
  • Sharif University of Technology

Fardis described the digital economy as a primary driver of national economic resilience, expressing confidence that the workshop's outputs will inform effective policymaking.

Ali Naghie, the workshop instructor, highlighted the debut use of the "Oxford Scenario Planning" model. This multi-stakeholder framework allows representatives from diverse sectors to interactively reach a shared understanding of the digital economy's future. The active participation observed indicates a strong capacity for building consensus and drafting joint solutions.

The "Entrepreneurs' Brainstorming" program will continue as a series of specialized sessions and workshops, leveraging insights from government, private, and academic sectors to deliver practical solutions for strengthening Iran's digital ecosystem.
