Human capital in a company is one of the most important factors for innovation. In this paper we have concentrated on two characteristics of human capital which are Uniqueness and strategic value and according to them started to check the amount of matching the modes of innovation and HR Configurations in knowledge based firms which are located in Pardis and Tehran University Technology Park. Managing human capital in Innovative Companies needs a bundle of HR practices which are fitted with work force characteristics and special aims of firm. In this research we tried to answer this question do knowledge based firms choose a kind of HR Configuration according to their human capital characteristics and innovation mode? The research was a descriptive survey. We did Confirmatory factor analysis to assess the construct validity and model verification and used binominal test to check the amount of coordination betweenthe modes. In the first stage the maximum amount of coordination which was identified was between productivity - based HR system and the market –oriented innovation and in the next stage coordination was between collaborative HR system and science- based innovation mode. Also the characteristic of value has gained a higher average than Uniqueness feature.

Technological spillover at the micro level has always been one of the main works of foreign direct investment. In this article, the subject of spillovers and determinant factors is tried to be studied in the free zones. According to the conditions of the free zones of Iran, technological spillovers in the form of vertical links as the dependent variable and the factors that determine technological spillovers, including: research and development activities, the presence of qualified and skilled human resources, access to information and communication technologies, and service centres of scientific and technical research were selected as independent variables. Due to the limited number of statistical samples, the foreign investor companies in the free zones of Iran, the method of partial least squares (PLS) is used to test hypotheses. At the end it showed that all these determinant factors have a positive and significant impact on promotion of the vertical links in the free zones of the country.

Now a days, need assessment is one of the most important systems of defence acquisition system in the world. According to dynamic nature of future environment and its complexity, uncertainty and instability, the classic approach of need assessment (threat-based) is not so effective anymore and so, some countries have changed their approach from threat based to capability-base recently. Using threat-based approach and the lake of integrated and comprehensive model for need assessment in defence field of the our country lead to enforcing high costs. This study is aimed to present a comprehensive capability based model for need assessment and extract probable capability components of the country. For this purpose, defensive information related to need assessment of America, Australia, Britain and Canada have been collected, interpreted, compared and analysed. Then, need assessment models were investigated qualitatively by Meta sensitize method and finally a capability based need assessment model in defence field presented. A list of capability components is proposed for the country either.

For successful technology transfer, it is needed to identify Industry needs, required technologies, technological resources, transfer methods and its factors. The purpose of this study was to examine factors affecting the successful transfer of nanotechnology as a concern to make progress on the development of Iran. The exploratory mixed method study was used. The statistical samples of the qualitative phase were academic and industrial experts in nanotechnology industry, the samples were selected with purposeful sampling until theoretical saturation stage. The samples in quantitative study were 83 experts which selected by simple random sampling. A semi-structured interview were used in qualitative study and a questionnaire used for quantitative study. Data collected were analyzed by using of SPSS 18 software. The results showed that the effective components included knowledge, organizational, technological, communications, training human resources and understanding of the physical environment. These factors in the receiver and provider organization have a different significance. Priority components in the receiver was technological, organizational, knowledge, communication, manpower training and understanding of the physical environment issues and in the provider organization was technological, organizational, communication, knowledge and understanding of the physical environment and the training of manpower issue.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of talent management in PANHA organization’s intellectual capital development. This research is established on the basis of an original hypothesis and three sub-hypothesis which measures the talent management effect on three intellectual capital factors including human capital, relational structural capital and organizational structural capital. A sample consisted of 158 individuals (118 of talented staff and 40 of deputies and experts of organization) were selected and analysed by inferential statistics using descriptive-surveyed research approach. Data were collected using questionnaires. For data analysis, first, we have proceeded to the base validity calculation of all studied indicators using confirmatory factor analysis and then the research hypothesizes were examined by fitted model and structural equations model. The research findings indicate that talent management has positive and meaningful effect on intellectual capital of PANHA organization. Among those three components of intellectual capital, talent management has also positive and meaningful effect on two components of human capital and relational structural capital but has no impact upon organizational structural capital.

Technological Alliance is an intelligence solution in order to obtain the strategic objects of firms. While the trend of this type of collaboration is numerously increasing but also the failure rate would raise. This high rate of risk is derived from the nature of internal corporation of organization in the technological alliance. In the alliance process, the most of analytical methods and models considered into two types: relational and performance risks. In this paper, resources of risk are identified in the phases of strategic alliance process from the literature review. Then the degree of the importance and influence of the phase of alliance, in the success of alliance, is weighted in checklist made by expert panel through Delphi technique. Research method is Design Science with method output and design precision strategy that used of two Delphi panel rounds. It was resulted that risk factors in the each phases of alliance is not equal and also the equal risk factor in the alliance process phase don’t have equal weights. The aim of this paper is demonstrate flexible, dynamic and reliable method in order to Alliance Risk Assessment in which include Identify, Analysis and Evaluation of risk resources. Achieving to a structured method that enabled to predict and estimate its risk rate based on each alliance phase by the ideas of employees and beneficiaries of alliance sides, is a significant consequence of this paper.
