  National innovation system(NIS) includes a series of organizations and institutions at the national level which aims to incorporate  in developing and diffusion of science and technology and creates innovation climate.  Governments in this system  develop and implement  their innovation policy. In systemic approach besides problems of  each elements of this system ,there is another failure which related to interactions of the system elements, that is called systemic failure. In this research , at first by reviewing the literature  conceptual framework of national innovation system of Iran is presented. Then, in a field study by distribution of 350 questionnaires among Iranian innovation experts  and specialists and using structural equation modeling technique , analyzing of interactions and their impacts on each other and effectiveness of national innovation system has been done. 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.

  The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between organizational learning and organizational innovation through the mediation of knowledge sharing between staff and faculty members of Sabzevar universities. The research method, according to how to obtain the required data, is descriptive and correlational and specifically based on the structural equation model, which used maximum likelihood estimates with skewness adjustment. The statistical population of this study is the official staff and faculty members of public universities, Azad, Payame Noor, new technologies, non-profit and applied science in Sabzevar. To measure the research variables, three questionnaires with a 5-point Likert scale were used. These questionnaires were distributed among 237 employees and faculty members of Sabzevar universities in a stratified random manner. The content validity of all three questionnaires was confirmed by a number of management experts and specialists and the reliability of organizational learning, knowledge sharing and organizational innovation questionnaires using Cronbach's alpha coefficient was determined to be 0.89, 0.96 and 0.92, respectively. . Data were analyzed by Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests, one-sample t-test, Pearson correlation and structural equation modeling using SPSS25 and LISREL software. Findings showed that organizational learning, both directly and indirectly through knowledge sharing, plays a key role in the rate of innovation in Sabzevar universities. Knowledge sharing also has a positive, direct and significant effect on the level of innovation of the organization. In addition, the findings show that the status of key variables in this study in the study population is not appropriate. Manuscript profile

  Nowadays, the importance of nobility has cumulatively grown among increasing competition between corporations and myriad of researchers and managers gravitate towards business model innovation as the guarantor of profitability and persistence. In spite of various models and frameworks related to business model innovation, no comprehensive model has been proposed so far to recognize and priority characteristics of business model innovation. In order to proposed a framework by systematic literature review of articles indexed in WOS and SCOPUS have been collected and 42 selected articles have been examined, interpreted and eventually combined by means of meta-synthesis method. It was found that the characteristics of business model innovation can be categorized as the overall four frames of innovation in content (including 2 macro-definitions of 1.value chain activities, 2.intra-organizational activities), innovation in structure, innovation in governance and innovation in value capture. Then the importance and priority of characteristics was determined using Shanon method. Eventually, requisite suggestions according to the findings of research have been presented. Manuscript profile

Based on the findings of this research, the roles of university, industry, based on the goodness of fit index were highly fitted. In this model, both institutions of the university and industry had a significant impact on the ecosystem. The industry with a higher factor loading was in the first place of the importance of role in creating the ecosystem, and the institution of the university with a lower factor loading was on the next order. The model's power of prediction criterion, indicated that exogenous variables, i.e., university and industry roles, have the potential to predict the formation of the ecosystem (relationship) of the university and the industry Manuscript profile

  The purpose of the research was to investigate the role of academics' boundary-spanning in organizational innovation by mediating organizational agility in technical and engineering faculties of public universities in Tehran. The research method was mixed-exploratory (qualitative-quantitative). In the qualitative part, it was considered to identify the characteristics of academics' boundary-spanning in state universities. So, 15 faculty members of public universities were purposefully selected and interviewed. The interviews were analyzed using coding, and 48 open codes, 9 central codes were identified and they were placed in three categories: Personal characteristics, Job characteristics, and Organizational characteristics of academics' boundary-spanning were placed in three categories. The research method in the quantitative part was descriptive-correlation. The statistical population of technical and engineering faculty members of public universities in Tehran was 2189 people in 1402, which was determined by using Cochran's formula, the sample size was 327 people, and sampling was done using stratified (relative) random sampling. The data was collected using the researcher-made questionnaire of academic's boundary-spanning, questionnaire of organizational innovation and the organizational agility. Cronbach's alpha coefficient and confirmatory factor analysis were used to determine the reliability of the tools. Data analysis was done with Pearson correlation test and structural equation modeling technique with SPSS and LISREL 8.80 software. The findings showed that boundary spanning has a positive effect on organizational innovation and organizational agility, and organizational agility has a significant effect on organizational innovation. Also, the mediating role of organizational agility in the effect of boundary spanning on organizational innovation was confirmed. As a result, in order to survive in a competitive environment, higher education should innovate in the processes of education, research and scientific production by using the strategy of boundary spanning and improving organizational agility Manuscript profile
