Porter’s diamond theory deals with the competitive advantages of nations.
According to Porter, nations, like companies, can improve their competitiveness by exploiting factors available to them. The model can be used both to analyse a firm’s ability to function in a national market, as well as analyse a national market’s ability to compete in an international market.
