From the 1990s, the concept of REGIONAL COMPETITIVENESS in the public assemblies of developed countries and some developing countries has become a major issue through which the countries can make a clear set of policies to stimulate the development of their own regions. Under this circumstances, the purpose of this study refers to identify and prioritize the most important factors that contribute to the development of the KURDISTAN province. This descriptive-analytical study, regarding to the typology of REGIONAL COMPETITIVENESS studies is an exploratory research, is based on qualitative and quantitative data. Quantitative data have been gathered through documentary studies and qualitative data through questionnaire-distribution.

The results indicate that in the first level, the "economic factor" with 0.24, "institutional-political factor," with 0.18 and in the second level, sub-criteria such as "efficiency of production system" with 0.44 and "public policy" with 0.43 have the greatest impact on improving the competitiveness of the KURDISTAN region. Therefore, with regard to the economic drivers of the region, "forestry", "agriculture" and "building" with 1.32, 1.17 and 1.04 are the most competitive activity sectors of region, respectively.
