Abstract: Abstract The goal of this study is for looking into the influence of influencing variables on the innovation orientation of Syrian construction firms throughout the conflict years. This research also aims to analyze the influence on the tourist industry and to develop a conceptual framework that depicts the possible linkages. The effect of eight primary barriers was examined in the study: technical, financial, psychological, process, cultural, management, governmental, and environmental barriers. The study compared the recommended conceptual framework to the theoretical foundation as well as the most relevant related frameworks. The research examines the literature in specific, as well as the overall literature on innovation orientation, in order to identify technical gaps in practice and theory. Additionally, the findings can aid local businesses and government agencies in comprehending the structure of the obstacles and leading them toward future advancements and upgrades that are differently necessary for the nation’s post-war rebuilding, particularly in the tourist industry.
