Identifying factors affecting technology transfer and using digital transformation technologies to ease and accelerate the transfer process are important issues that can lead organizations to make more correct decisions in this field. Considering the gap of studies, the present research was conducted with the aim of identifying the factors affecting technology transfer with a focus on digital transformation. The study applied the meta-synthesis method of Sandelowski and Barroso by conducting a systematic review of 42 related articles among 312 articles. The final papers were selected based on the inclusion criteria. The validity was confirmed according to the inclusion criteria, holding meetings by the research team, using an expert, and auditing the whole process for theoretical consensus. Reliability was also determined through the Critical Appraisal Skills Program. Findings show that influential components and factors in the process of technology transfer in the context of digital transformation include 7 dimensions and 61 components. These dimensions are considered “technology selection and acquisition”, “technology adaptation”, “technology absorption”, “technology exploitation”, “technology development, and improvement”, “technology dissemination”, “learning and innovation”. The model presented can be used to transfer technology in the context of digital transformation in Iran and other developing countries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
