Journal Article 2022 02 12 Numerous studies have been conducted on the position of the mediator in the ecosystem of non-electronic industries. However, there are limited studies on the intermediary of creating common value in the ecosystem of electronics industries. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to explore the dimensions of the value creation mediator in the ecosystem of electronics industries. The present study was conducted using a qualitative method and a systematic data theory approach. In-depth interviews were conducted with 19 experts in the field of innovation and electronics industry in order to gather information. From the analysis of data on 236 concepts, a total of 186 open source and after analyzing and aggregating the data, 19 sub-categories were obtained and finally 6 main categories were identified and discovered as the dimensions of the mediating entity of creating common value in the ecosystem of electronic industry. These six main categories are the category of "shared value creation institution" as a central phenomenon whose role is the creation and development of common assets, resulting from inter-institutional cooperation and the category of "creative exchange network" as causal conditions that underlie the realization, discovery and development of assets. Includes the category of "cooperation network requirements" as effective conditions for enabling value-creating cooperation between institutions, and the category of "institutional cooperation conflict" as intervening conditions that prevent divergence of inter-institutional cooperation, and the category of "cooperation programs". "Joint" as an action strategy that determines the main way of creating value in inter-institutional cooperation, and finally, the category of "eco-excellence of the electronics industry" as the effects and consequences of that central phenomenon.
