Abstract :

The High technologies have long been considered as one of the basic elements of production and development and have always been changing with the growth of human knowledge and has always been one of the most vital components of commercial, industrial and service organizations and a strategic factor for economic development of countries. Acquiring high technologies is a very important process for organizations that are interested in technical innovations because these types of technologies have affected the performance of the organization and play an important role in achieving the goals of the organization. Given the importance and role of technology, especially advanced technologies in creating a competitive advantage for organizations, one of the basic issues regarding such technologies is how to achieve them. This qualitative research, by adopting a management approach and analyzing the risks of acquiring technology, seeks to provide a model for achieving advanced technologies for the information technology industry using data theory. To collect information, 15 semi-structured interviews with organizational and academic experts were conducted. Sampling was theoretical sampling and was performed using targeted technique and snowball. Data analysis in the open coding process was performed with the help of MAXQDA10 software. The proposed model was obtained with a self-emergence approach and the research results are narrated.
