Abstract: The object of this paper is to show that the emergence of technoparks specialized in information and communication technologies can contribute to diversify the industrial structure through the territorial anchoring of value-added manufacturing and services activities. Nevertheless, the reproduction of industrial organizations does not presuppose coherent coordination ways of public and private actors. The geographical proximity of theses actors close to each others is not a sufficient condition to induce externalities and learning effects. The structural weaknesses and the incoherence of the institutional arrangements prevent the technoparks of Maghreb from integrating the international networks of production and technological innovation.
