Abstract
High-tech products, which have a dominant share in global markets, have significant value both for the countries that sell them and for the countries that buy them. The competitive advantage of the exporter countries in these products arouses a research curiosity. Moreover, since these countries are mostly in the developed markets group, the extent to which high-tech exports are realized efficiently draws attention as a second research question. In addition to all these, the relationship between export efficiency and global competitiveness in related products constitutes the third and final research question. In this study, the aforementioned three research questions are answered using three different methods and answers are presented for countries that want to export high-tech products. It has been observed that exporting effectively makes a significant difference on the global competitiveness of high-tech products. Countries should channel their economic power to high-tech export, and that the country's wealth should be used efficiently in the financing of foreign trade
