description Territorial intelligence in Algeria represents a captivating and crucial field of study, situated at the intersection of network structuring and sustainable development. In a context where territories play a vital role in achieving national objectives, territorial intelligence emerges as a strategic component. This study explores the complex dynamics related to the network structuring of territorial actors and its impact on sustainable development. Algeria, with its geographical, social, and economic diversity, provides a fertile ground to understand how territorial intelligence can catalyze cooperation among different actors and promote sustainable initiatives. This exploration will seek to shed light on the challenges and opportunities presented by territorial intelligence in the specific context of Algeria, emphasizing its potential role as a lever for harmonious and sustainable development. This work pursues two fundamental objectives. Firstly, it aims to clarify the concept of territorial intelligence by highlighting its collective, transformative, and interactionist dimensions. We have endeavored to demonstrate the existence of interdependencies and reciprocal links between the network structuring of actors and the local industrial dynamics. Secondly, we delve into the question of sustainable development in territories in Algeria, particularly in the province of Blida, known for its specific entrepreneurial dynamics. Our exploratory study is based on a quantitative statistical survey through a questionnaire, conducted with a sample of 110 companies located in various industrial and business zones in the province of Blida. The main results of this research highlight that the geographical concentration of companies provides an opportunity to strengthen competitive interactions and foster the emergence of ecosystems conducive to exchange, knowledge transfer, innovation, and the creation of added value at the local level. We observe that the deployment of territorial intelligence and network structuring processes requires a specific industrial organization, including the establishment of open and collaborative networks or clusters of companies.
