  This article investigates the issue of technology transfer in the automotive industry quantitatively using an econometric approach. As a case study, the international joint venture between the French automotive group Peugeot and Iran Khodro Industrial Group in two products 301 and 2008, have been selected as case studies of this article. In the literature review section, it is shown that there are five main approaches to measuring technology in auto parts: 1- Approach to the amount of investment in research and development, 2- Export value approach to GDP per capita, 3- Definition approach Threshold, 4- Approach based on engineering cost ranking and finally and the latest method 5- Patent statistics approach. This paper first describes the previous five approaches and based on this; a new approach based on the regression analysis model for measuring the technology transfer index of auto parts is presented. The results show that despite Iran Khodro's great efforts to transfer technology from Peugeot in two products, 301 and 2008, the company will be successful only in the production of auto parts with simple technology and low added value have been produced in Iran Khodro's internal supply chain.

  Scientific and technological advancements affect countries in all aspects of human life and terms of socio-economy, culture, politics and environment so increasingly that many plans would be outlined to strengthen the supply and demand for technology. Techno-market is a mechanism that expedites the development operations of theology specially advanced technologies. Despite the importance of technology to the domestic industries, and recent financings for research and development of new technologies, informal evidence indicates an infelicitous technical cooperation among industries. Nevertheless, innumerous technologies have been developed in various departments as the enterprises need different technologies. Evidence indicates that the previous experiences of applying techno-market has not been much successful and economic exploitation of technology has not been materialized, either. So present research end eavors to specify effective factors on success or failure of techno-market and present solutions and patterns to develop techno-market functions such as increasing the profitability of enterprise technology exchanges, and helping departments, organizations, and domestic industries appoint these solutions.

  Technology transfer in petroleum contracts must have jurisdictional legislation and provide materials to the contracting parties therefore, it is necessary to explain the jurisprudential nature of technology transfer in these contracts. This descriptive-analytic research answers the questions that what is the jurisprudential nature of technology transfer in petroleum contracts? which of the following is in accordance with Islamic jurisprudence? After examining different types of international legal and indefinite contracts and different formats such as bye back, leasing and reward contract it was found the step four of bye back (IPC) it is very similar to lease and reward contracts. also concluded that technology transfer in Petroleum contracts is similar to leasing. The most important legal effect is that, under the terms of the contract for the lease of individuals, the contractor has no rental right of ownership, and is merely entitled to receive the remuneration provided by the service.

  The selection, transfer and development of technology is one of the main pillars of the upstream oil and gas industry. The process of selecting technology in Iran, due to the type of ownership and special importance of oil and gas resources, is considered as one of the main components in the upstream part of this industry. Technology selection is a mechanism that aims to achieve economic benefits. In order to achieve effective technology, transfer in this industry, it seems necessary in terms of indirect effect in addition to its direct effect. One of these effects on technology transfer that must be considered is the issue of technology overflow. The present study is based on the study method, according to the rules and available resources, and in line with previous studies. Finally, the present study aims to develop a conceptual model of economic evaluation, a quantitative structure of transfer technology in terms of overflow effect. Lack of impact of overflow is one of the main reasons for lack of impact of technology transfer in the country. If the effect of overflow is applied in technical and economic calculations and contractual cases in the selection and transfer of technology, it can improve the effectiveness of technology at various levels of industry and even at the national level.

  Appropriate technology transfer is one of the best ways to overcome the weakness of technology as well as to achieve the competitive advantage. An appropriate technology transfer requires an understanding of the factors which are effective in transferring. Hence the present study aims to identify and Rank the factors affecting technology transfer. In this study, using the model presented by Lai and Tsai and interviews with teachers and experts, factors affecting technology transfer are identified. Then, AHP, ELECTRE and Topsis techniques were used to rank these factors. As each of these methods has have provided different rankings in some cases, a single ranking was used to aggregate methods (mean, Borda and Copeland). Results show that Technological factors are the most important factor in technology transfer. Also, Personnel, Industrial, cost and organizational factors are the most important respectively.

  Technology transfer and adoption is a complex issue in the third world which, from scientific as well as cultural, political and economical aspects, has involved not only the developing countries but also many of the Western research communities and international organizations for years. The present research investigates the success rate of technology transfer of Screw Compressor industry in Iranian companies. The research is applied from the viewpoint of research objective, but it is descriptive from the viewpoint of methodology. In order to collect data, a researcher-devised questionnaire has been used. The validity of the questionnaire was confirmed by the experts, and Cronbach's Alpha was used to confirm the reliability of the questions (α = 0.81). The research population consists of the managers of the companies that have transferred Screw Compressor technology in Iran, totaling 20 companies. Techniques of descriptive statistics including frequency table as well as inferential statistics including mean, standard deviation, variance analysis test (ANOVA) and the Duncan's grouping were used to analyze the data. The results show that 78.9 percent of the subjects have cited the role of management and the country's economic conditions, 57.89 percent have cited the effect of the country's environmental situation, 73 percent have cited the role of human resources (experts and technical staff), and 84.21 percent have cited the role of research and development as the main factor in the success or failure of the technology transfer. The average of management factor is 4.1, the research and development factor is 4, the environmental situation factor is 3.7, the economic condition factor is 3.8, and the average of human resources factor is 4.2. The Anova test indicated that there is a significant difference among the factors affecting the success of the technology transfer of Screw compressor industry in Iran. In other words, Duncan's grouping indicated that the management, research and development, and human resources factors have a greater and more significant effect than the environmental situation and economic condition factors.

  In today’s competitive world, countries use different ways to acquire and use the technology boom. While the ultimate goal of technology transfer and acquisition in industrializing countries is to absorb and localize technical knowledge, it seems this is not sometimes fulfilled because of some obstacles and factors. Although there are some barriers to localize technology in Iran as well as other developing countries, it is more important in Iran due to some problems such as sanctions. In this paper, firm level and micro-level technology localization factors were extracted by conducting in-depth interviews with experts of Jahad Daneshgahi at Iran University of Science and Technology and Tajrobeh Nour Turbine Company, and then, were depicted in a Structural Equation Model (SEM) form. The size of the statistical population was 120 people, all of whom were considered as the sample size. After distributing the questionnaires among all members of that society, only 91 ones were responded. In this research, the Combined Reliability method was used to examine research reliability and its value was 0.87. The results illustrated that firms seeking to localize technology should invest in five fields such as learning style, technological collaborations, technology adoption, absorptive capacity, and the main activities of localization.

  The transfer of the latest scientific and technological achievements (transfer of new technologies) is one of the most important and indices in the new paradigm of petroleum contracts (IPC). Higher efficiency and higher productivity, which leads to the highest interest and lowest loss in operation, on one hand and the diffusion and localization of technology along with the training of internal forces on the other hand, are important reasons for placing such a commitment in the new paradigm of petroleum contracts. however, the implementation of this obligation will always face various violations by investors (both in scientific and technical dimensions) due to the diversity of transmission methods and the combination of the technologies and the result of investors willingness to import the latest technologies (for more benefit in other contracts). These violations will eventually emerge in three cases: deficient or incomplete implementation, delay in implementation and failure to investigate possible violations in the entry and implementation of this obligation and to guarantee their violation of obligations under the contract; binding commitment, charging fee and termination of contract (which is also applicable in all three claims)as the rule governing the new paradigm of oil contracts. The article has come to the conclusion with descriptive and analytical method and with reference to library that by prolonging the time for claiming damages and creating a suitable deposit, the probability of violation can be reduced to some extent and the set goals can be guaranteed Manuscript profile

  AbstractIntellectual property (IP) is one of the factors influencing the attraction of foreign direct investment (FDI). Even though previous research has focused extensively on the relationship between FDI attraction and intellectual property, the categories of technology transfer, governments' legal protection, and membership in international conventions have received less attention. Therefore, the present study seeks to explain how IP and legal protections contribute to FDI attraction, focusing on technology transfer. This study included 1236 managers and macro-planning experts in the statistical population. According to Krejcie and Morgan's table, 213 individuals were included in the study. A simple random sampling method was used to select respondents. A questionnaire was used for data collection. Data analysis was conducted using the exploratory factor analysis (EFA) technique. It was found that IP plays a multidimensional role in FDI attraction. According to the findings, IP facilitates the attraction of FDI through technology transfer. Furthermore, the results indicate that adopting international laws and agreements (e.g., membership in conventions) plays a significant role in attracting FDI.Keywords: foreign direct investment, FDI, intellectual property, IP, technology transfer Manuscript profile

  After accepting the JCPOA and despite Peugeot's absence from cooperation with Iran Khodro for several years, the company, with the aim of transferring technology, re-launched a joint project with Peugeot to produce two products, 301 and 2008, but like the bitter experiences of the past, This technology transfer project also failed; Therefore, in this article, the issue of technology transfer in the automotive industry is conceptually studied using the Grounded Theory of the foundation and the factors influencing it. In this article, from the beginning, technology transfer is assumed to be equivalent to knowledge transfer, and knowledge transfer is criticized in two categories: explicit and implicit knowledge. Based on the research background, the effective factors in technology transfer are classified into 7 groups. Then, the main questions for the project were collected in the interviews. From the interviews, 42 phrases called "conceptual perception" were obtained. The conceptual findings were then divided into 9 "semantic categories" and "root of weakness" in each semantic category. The results show that low competitive pressure in the Iranian automotive market has led to a monopoly, so that Peugeot Automotive Group has not transferred any of its advanced parts technology to Iranian suppliers of their parts.

  Today, with the advancement of science and the complexity of the process of doing things, technology transfer has become one of the most important and significant categories in the developing countries. The oil industry is one of the most important industries in our country, which has always faced the challenge of technology transfer, and can use its strategic alliance to complete its domestic technological efforts. Therefore, this research attempts to examine the role of technology transfer as an incentive to enter the technological strategic alliance. In this research, after studying the literature and using the library method, the subject matter has been studied; Subsequently, using the qualitative approach and interviewing the experts, the concepts and categories affecting the transfer of technology as an incentive to enter the alliances have been addressed. One of the key issues in this regard is the acquisition of technology that has resulted from the concepts of technological learning, technological capability, the use of complementary technologies and access to technology. Another identified category is the adaptation to change which is derived from the concept of response to technological change. The third identified category in technology transfer is the management of the technology development process which incorporates concepts of cost-effective technology savings, access to international technological markets, and competitive and technological advantage. Finally, the category of technology utilization derived from the concepts of the use of the latest technological innovations, the sharing of technological resources, and the promotion of innovation and creativity of the company. It is suggested that organizations, using these identified concepts, and step forward to enter the technological strategic alliances.   Manuscript profile

  Joint Venture, as a key contract in international partnerships, has several features that determine the way these elements are set on the scope of technology transfer. Despite the familiarity of our legal system with joint ventures, the legal basis of technology transfer has not yet been clarified and this issue has caused that, unlike countries like Egypt, it has been difficult to formulate a comprehensive and specific law for technology transfer or at least be delayed. The success of the technology transfer process in the joint venture depends on the size and quality of the support provided by the legislator. In this regard, governments implement support strategies along with restrictive policies, and they have implemented several legal protections such as guaranteeing technology, non-discrimination, transferring the principle and profit of technology, avoiding double taxation, freedom in the form of capital transfer involving knowledge, accepting out-of-court dispute settlement, and sometimes even reducing import tariffs and equipment; A case that has not been seriously considered in the laws related to investment. Our legal system, apart from the Investment Promotion Law and Article 107 of the Fifth Development Plan Law, does not have a codified provision for organizing the transfer of technology either through a joint investment channel or transfer in the form of a special contract. Regarding the facilitating and encouraging effect of Article 107, it should be said that its interpretation brevity and ambiguities have prevented the article from playing such a role. In terms of jurisprudential foundations, the rule of negation of mustache, the principle of Islamic dignity, the necessity of gaining economic independence, and the generality of the permissibility of trading with foreigners, the rule of negation of harm and the rule of commitment, can be proposed as general bases in justifying the transfer of technology. And in terms of special foundations, the ownership of technical knowledge, the right to learn, the unity of the criteria inferred from the permissibility of mudarabah and farming with a foreigner, the non-exclusivity of the contract to specific contracts, the principle of the validity and capacity of the partnership contract in jurisprudence, the contract of make order can be cited in this regard, except in exceptional cases, the taste of Sharia and jurisprudence implies the permissibility and even the necessity of technology transfer. On the other hand, the limits and limitations of technology transfer are subject to the will of the parties, but the legislator can set limits on the transfer of technology in Joint Ventures based on expediency. Joint Venture includes obligations, among which are the condition of technology transfer, technology owner's commitment to training, submission of documents and disclosure of technical secrets to the partner, special conditions of Joint Venture, whose scope and quality have a significant impact on knowledge transfer. Therefore, considering the importance of the subject, in this article, an attempt was made to analyze and evaluate the jurisprudential bases and effective contractual conditions of Joint Venture in technology transfer in detail.
