In this research, the elements of NIS of Iran consists of strategies of transfer and diffusion of technology, structural elements, innovation drivers and legislations frameworks. Findings of this research show that the most important systemic failure of NIS of Iran is lack of effectiveness of legislations frameworks’ impacts on innovation drivers. Identification and analysis of systemic failures can lead to appropriate policies for each elements and at last upgrade the performance of national innovation system.
