Technology is one of the main determinants of international trade. Firms try to acquire key technologies through different ways. One of these ways is technology transfer. However, many technology transfer projects have confronted with different serious challenges. This research tries to identify and explain these challenges with a thematic analysis approach. According to the importance of deep understanding from these challenges, we used thematic analysis to extract the main challenges. After coding the results, we classified 18 challenges into 4 factors. The necessity of having comprehensive approach to different aspects of technology transfer and considering the special context of Iran are some of the main results. As well, unwillingness to technology transfer because of economic, political, and project based reasons related to the factor of technology transferor factor, low absorptive capacity of Iranian firms related to technology transferee factor, lack of economic sustainability related to context factor and finally different nature of technologies related to content factor were introduced as the main challenges of technology transfer in big commercial projects in Iran.

Identifying the problems of Knowledge-based companies is important because of their special position in the economy of the country, despite the increasing value of exports of Knowledge-based products, this companies suffer from two problems, areas of investment and unsustainable export, the issue that has challenged the competitiveness of these companies, it’s an issue that needs to be explored further. The aim of this study was to conceptualize and Prioritization of intelligent knowledge-based companies through a combination approach. The present study aimed to explore the mixed and the functional result. The first step is research in order to achieve the objectives of the research, using semi-structured content analysis and interviews with activist’s knowledge-based companies (professionals, managers and relevant officials), 95 Code as intelligent concepts competitive knowledge-based mining companies and 10 components were classified according to semantic relationships. The second step 12 experts selected by theoretical sampling their views through a questionnaire with 5-point Likert collected and analyzed data through fuzzy Delphi technique. The results of two surveys of experts led to the identification of eight main components of a competitor intelligence, financial intelligence, market intelligence, technical intelligence, intelligent management, regulatory intelligence, human intelligence and political intelligence to gain competitive intelligence in the knowledge-based companies.

Tech companies in the past two decades has focused on the commercialization of their technology. Maintaining competitive advantage and corporate survival depends on maintaining and strengthening the commercialization of technology. According to study background knowledge creation, cross-functional cooperation and top management support, including the factors affecting the technology commercialization. The main objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between cross-functional collaboration, knowledge creation, top management support and commercialization of technology in high-tech industries. This study is based on objective, functional and descriptive-analytic survey conducted reason is that with the approach. Statistical population of the research, development and marketing companies located in the area have formed the Pardis Science and Technology Park. The sample was determined 103 using a Cochran formula companies. A questionnaire was used to collect information localized. The reliability by Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0/956) and validity by test (KMO) was performed. Structural equation modeling and data analysis to be conducted using the software SmartPLS. According to the results of this study, the variable cross-functional cooperation and technology commercialization positive and significant relationship existed and mediate the relationship between knowledge creation and support of senior management to positively moderate the relationship. Finally, according to the results suggestions are presented.

This study aimed to investigate the impact of entrepreneurship training on entrepreneurial mindset according to mediating role of creativity and entrepreneurial alertness. By Cochrane formula, 105 companies out of 140 organizations of MOD have randomly been selected. The main tool for collecting data on Cronbach's alpha reliability and validity of the questionnaire, which is based on convergent validity, divergent and diagnosis and level of reliability and validity for all structures was accepted. This study aimed to examine the effect of variables on one another on the basis of structural equation modeling was used. The results show that entrepreneurship training and entrepreneurial creativity had not any effect on entrepreneurial mindset, but entrepreneurship training has an impact on creativity and entrepreneurial alertness. Also, entrepreneurial alertness of the role of mediator in relation to entrepreneurship training and entrepreneurial thinking play device.

In the knowledge based economy, innovative behavior plays a significant role in creating and enhancing organizational values and this matter in research facilities of the Department of Defense with respect to their activity field. The aim of this study is to design and fit a model of the relationship between intellectual capital components and innovative behavior with regard to the interventionist behavior role of knowledge sharing among employees who work in research facilities of the Department of Defense. A questionnaire consisting of 25 questions to measure variables were used. The questionnaire was distributed among 80 employees of the studied organizations. In ordet to analyze data structural equation modeling was used. The result of this research proves the relationship between intellectual capital human dimension and innovative behavior by best practices sharing and also structural dimension of intellectual capital and both dementions of knowledge sharing behavior. In the following, according to importance of innovation in the organization and to strengthen its return to the field and conducted qualitative interviews was conducted also factors influencing variables and the systematic relationships between these factors and variables were identified in order for the organization to improve them. System analysis results indicate the important role of individual creativity.

Open innovation relies on external knowledge sources such as customers, and Customer knowledge has been neglected in researches about Iranian Defense Industry.In addition, new product failure rate is hight in defense industries. This study aimes to investigate the impact of Customer Knowledge Management (CKM) on the Critical Success Factors (CSFs) of New Product Development and New Product Development (NPD) performance. This is a survey and descriptive study.considering the literature of the study, conseptual models and the hypothesis were pesented. In the second step to evaluate the models and the hypothesis a questionare was desingned and elites opinions through the users of defence products were included.using relative categorized method, the sampel memebers were selected among the users of new defence products. The analysis of the data through Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) showed that there is a positive and significant correlation between customer knowledge management (knowledge from, about and for customer) with perfomnce of the new product development and critical sources factors. Also the relation between the knowledge “from” and the knowledge “about “with critical Success factors was confirmed but the knowledge “for” customers was not confirmed. The results shows that adopting customer management knowledge in the process of developing new defence products has a great impact on new product development.
