  Background: As technological entrepreneurship increasingly optimizes the regional economic structure and promotes economic growth, it is essential to strengthen technological entrepreneurship and accelerate the industrialization of scientific and technological achievements in the university entrepreneurship ecosystem. The purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze the dimensions of the Iranian technological university entrepreneurship ecosystem from the perspective of experts in university incubators. Methods: This study was applied in terms of purpose and mixed-exploratory in terms of data collection. In the qualitative part, the content analysis methods of semi-structured interviews used. The research population in this section was 13 experts including university professors, administrators, experts, and users (tenants) of university incubators who selected by purposive sampling. The validity and reliability of the research tool confirmed. The interviews continued until they reached the theoretical saturation level. In the quantitative part, data collected using survey method and distributing a questionnaire, and data analyzed through structural equation modeling using PLS software.

  The present research is applied based on the purpose of the research and qualitative-quantitative in terms of data collection. The research topic is technological entrepreneurship ecosystem in knowledge-based businesses in Tehran and Qazvin Science and Technology Parks. Targeted or judgmental-snowball sampling method was used to select a sample of 15 academic experts. The data collection tool in the field method is three methods: questionnaire, interview and observation. Semi-structured interview method has been used. Validity and reliability of the assessment tool were presented by 6 academic and practical experts in the field of technological entrepreneurship and their opinions were applied to it to correct the cases and after the amendments were approved. Organizing and analyzing qualitative data requires three activities: data summarization, data supply, and conclusion. For this purpose, after conducting interviews with members of the statistical community, qualitative data analysis was performed using qualitative content analysis method and using Atlas T8 software. Quantitative data analysis showed that the path coefficient of the variables of financial technology (fintech) and technological entrepreneurship is 0.532 and the t-statistic is 7.205. Therefore, the proposed model has a good fit. Manuscript profile

  The main purpose of this research was to investigate the role of technological literacy in the to investigate the role of technological literacy in the entrepreneurial intention in engineer students. This research was done with mixed method approach and with exploratory design. In qualitative phase of research 15 Entrepreneur engineer students were selected based on criteria oriented sampling and participated on semi structured interview and data were analyzed by seven keluize stages. Interview questions were designed around the dimensions of technology literacy and its relationship with entrepreneurship. To ensure the validity of the questions, the opinions of seven experts were used. To ensure the quality of data analysis, the findings were referred back to the interviewees after re-analysis to avoid possible deviations. Findings from the interviews indicated that technology entrepreneurs have a deep understanding of the nature, design, production, application and relationship of technology to society. In order to developing data based on stratified random sampling. 200 last semester engineer students were selected. Seraji and khavari(2015) technological literacy questioner and (2009) Liñán & Chen (2009) Entrepreneurial intention questioner with appropriate reliability were used for data gathering. The data were analyzed using pearson correlation and multiple regression. Findings indicted that entrepreneur engineer students have a appropriate understanding of the relevance of technological literacy and entrepreneurship. There is a correlation between students' technological literacy and the entrepreneurial intention in engineer students. The regression results showed that between dimensions of technological literacy, understanding nature of technology and relevance of technologies with the world around can explain 19/7 present of the variance of change in entrepreneurial intention in engineer students. In order to develop the entrepreneurial competencies in students, we propose to develop students’ technological skill in design and implementation of curriculum stages. Manuscript profile

  The rapid developments of digital technologies widely affect the creative industries in such a way that the integration of new technologies with traditional culture and art has created a tremendous change in the development of businesses in this field. But the purely economic approach to the ecosystem of digital and creative entrepreneurship leads to a kind of reductionism that examines this ecosystem without considering the cultural taste of digital technologies. The purpose of this research is to investigate the mediating role of cultural taste of digital technologies in the ecosystem of digital technological entrepreneurship in Iran's digital creative industries. The current research is applied in terms of its purpose and descriptive research in terms of survey type. The statistical population of the research includes 175 companies in the field of digital businesses and virtual space, such as animation and computer games, which are registered in the Secretariat of the Development Program of Creative Enterprises of the Scientific Vice President, and 120 companies were selected as samples. The main measuring tool of this research is the questionnaire made by the researcher. Data analysis was done by structural equation modeling by partial least squares (PLS) method and using Smart PLS software. The results showed that digital technological cultural taste has a mediating role in the ecosystem. Manuscript profile

  Choosing a suitable opportunity in conditions of uncertainty is a common problem for entrepreneurs. The software startup procedure is particularly vulnerable to extreme uncertainty and competition; therefore, analyzing opportunities and threats is critical for software entrepreneurs. Hence, the present study aims to identify the criteria of uncertainty in evaluating entrepreneurial opportunities in technology-driven businesses of the software industry with a fuzzy approach using a mixture of qualitative and quantitative methods. The statistical population of the research includes experts in the software industry. In this regard, first, a theoretical basis was obtained by examining the background. Second, we performed semi-structured interviews and extracted and coded 115 phrases. Third, after combining the general and subsidiary phrases, we reached 84 phrases, and by combining similar phrases, we selected 29 phrases. Forth, after categorizing those phrases, we determined the six axes of uncertainty and used the fuzzy Ahp technique and Geometric Buckley averaging in Microsoft Excel to rank those six axes as follows: 1-uncertainty in resources, 2-uncertainty in competition, 3-technological uncertainty, 4-political uncertainty, 5-uncertainty in agents, and 6-customer uncertainty. Finally, the model of evaluating entrepreneurial opportunities in conditions of uncertainty was designed using a fuzzy approach in the software industry. Manuscript profile
