The study was conducted with 398 employees working in Technocities across Turkey's seven regions between March 2017 and April 2018. The validity and reliability of scales were studied with exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis. The hypotheses were tested with structural equation modelling. The results of the analysis emphasized the importance of the dependence and uncertainty in obtaining the resources. As a result of study, solidarity within technocities has a full mediator effect on the relationship between resource scarcity and innovation performance. On the other hand it couldn't be obtained any other mediator effect on the relationship between the other sub-dimensions of variables. For this reason, the results indicated the partial mediator effect of solidarity on the relationship between the resource dependence sub-dimensions and innovation performance. These findings of this research are similar with the findings of previous researches.
