Scalable ventures, as a type of high-growth firms, have gained significant attention from researchers in recent years. While previous studies have contributed to a better understanding of this phenomenon, our knowledge of the antecedents that influence the emergence of these ventures remains limited. To address this gap, this research aims to identify business model features that impact venture scalability in the context of Iran. Employing a multiple case study approach and drawing upon 20 interviews with Iranian scale-ups, this study provides an in-depth analysis of the business model characteristics that contribute to the scalability of Iranian ventures. The research findings are presented in the form of four overarching dimensions, including: value proposition characteristics, value creation characteristics, value capture characteristics, and value protection characteristics that contribute to the scalability of Iranian ventures. Our inductive framework offers valuable insights for researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, and policymakers to better understand the phenomenon of scalability in the context of Iranian businesses.
