Abstract :
This article will identify the chalenlges and factors affecting technology commercialization in ACECR as one of the biggest reserch center in Iran. This study, after extensive study in the literature of the subject with qualitative method and using purposeful sampling, 27 in-depth interviews were conducted with technologists and experts in ACECR. After analyzing the theme, 215 factors affecting technology commercialization were identified. knowledge and skills, motivation, interest in technology, marketing power, diligence, expertise and Ambidexterity are individual factors and organizational culture, technological attitude of organizational management, existence of appropriate organizational structure, management support, team of experts, encouragement and Self-sufficiency are organizational factors and country needs, government support, market demand, sanctions, economic conditions, industry support, and geographic location are environmental factors. Also, the 120 problems and challenges identified in this study included financial, cultural, legal, human and physical resources problems, market entry, support and organization. The use of new financing methods, the enactment of new standards for standardization of new technologies, the creation of a culture of self-confidence in the country and the commitment of technology producers to better quality production and guarantee service, are the suggestions for solving technology commercialization problems
