Abstract
According to the path of economic growth theories, especially the introduction of endogenous growth theories to address the shortcomings of extrinsic theories, shows that economic systems in order to achieve long-term economic growth goals need to drive stimuli and improve endogenous components that originate, crystallize, and evolve from within these systems. In some endogenous growth models have stated that one country could be more successful than another if it devoted more resources to innovation. So today, the study of how to create innovation in various economic systems has become a challenging issue in the world's economic circles. An innovation system that can be implemented and applied in urban geography overcomes many urban, regional, and even national problems. Therefore, it is expected that the establishment of an appropriate system of urban innovation, given the specific conditions in each city, will make it possible to turn challenges into opportunities. Hence, this study examines the importance and status of Urban Innovation Systems (UIS).
