چکیده مقاله :
Science and technology parks have been a major driver of both the commercialization of agricultural innovation and the financial success of many farm and agribusiness firms. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to explain the factors affecting commercialization of agricultural innovation in Kermanshah Science and Technology Park. The experts of this center were sampled by the census method (N=110). Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. Research findings indicated that factors affecting commercialization of agricultural innovation in Kermanshah Science and Technology Park included support of small and medium enterprise firms, relationship of parks with universities and research centers, and consequence of commercialization for agricultural sectors and research centers.
بررسیها نشان میدهد پارکهای علم و فنّاوری و مراکز رشد در فرآیند ایجاد، توسعهو تجاریسازی نوآوری نقش مهمی دارند. از این رو هدف پژوهش توصیفی- پیمایشی حاضر، تبیین مولفههای مدل تجاریسازی نوآوری های کشاورزی در مراکز رشد کشاورزی پارک علم و فناوری استان کرمانشاه می باشد. جامعه آماری مورد مطالعه تمامی کارشناسان واحدهای فناور مراکز رشد کشاورزی استان کرمانشاه میباشند که به روش سرشماری مورد مطالعه قرار گرفتند. به منظور گردآوری داده ها نیز از پرسشنامه محقق ساخته بهره گرفته شد. روایی ابزار تحقیق توسط پانل متخصصان در ابعاد روایی ظاهری، محتوایی و سازهای مورد تائید قرار گرفت. آلفای کرونباخ و پایایی مرکب ابزار تحقیق نیز در بخشهای مختلف بالاتر از حد مطلوب بود. تجزیه و تحلیل داده ها نشان داد در زمینه تجاری سازی نوآوری های کشاورزی؛ حمایت از شرکت های کوچک و متوسط ، روابط پارک با دانشگاه و مراکز تحقیقاتی دارای بیشترین اهمیت و دستاوردهای تجاری سازی برای بخش کشاورزی و دانشگاه و مراکز تحقیقاتی دارای بیشترین اهمیت می باشند.
