Intellectual capital is one of the main factors in achieving economic growth, which in addition to direct effects on the economic growth of a country or region can also have spillover effects. Accordingly, the aim of this study is to investigate the direct and indirect effects (spillovers) of intellectual capital on economic growth in Central Asian countries including Iran, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar and the UAE in the period 2012-2021. The innovation index considered is the global innovation index and the Spatial Durbin econometric model was used to estimate the model. Also, a spatial weight matrix between the studied countries was created based on the distance between the countries. The model results showed that all variables in the model except foreign direct investment, other variables including natural capital, intellectual capital, and good governance index had direct and significant effects on the economic growth of countries. The good governance index and intellectual capital had the highest direct effect coefficient on the economic growth of countries. The study of (indirect) spillover effects has shown that intellectual capital has had positive and significant spillover effects on the economic growth of neighboring countries.
