Objective: With more than a decade since the implementation of the law "Supporting Knowledge-Based Companies and Institutions and Commercialization of Innovations and Inventions", the issue of evaluating the level of achievement of law and analyzing the quality of achievements and its positive and negative effects on the target community is of great importance. The present study was conducted with the aim of presenting an evaluation model for the policy of supporting knowledge-based companies and institutions.
Research design/methodology: In this qualitative research, the statistical population of the research consists of two parts: the part of documents, plans, drafts, the text of the law, regulations, instructions, correspondence and administrative orders related to the law on the support of knowledge-based companies and institutions, and the part of managers, experts, policymakers and implementers of the policy on the support of knowledge-based companies and institutions. The collection of research data was carried out using a documentary-library method and fieldwork through semi-structured interviews with academic and executive experts in the field of policy-making. The sampling was selected using a snowball and purposeful method and theoretical saturation was achieved by obtaining opinions from fifteen experts. The analysis of the research data was carried out using the content analysis method and using Atlas T software.
Findings: Based on the research results, 363 basic themes, 32 organizing themes, and 9 overarching themes were discovered and presented in the form of a model with key structures:policy functions, desirable characteristics, evaluation structure, environmental factors, evaluation timing, appropriateness, efficiency, effectiveness, and usefulness.
