RTOs' missions are for technology development and carry out complicated commercialization processes. Commercialization of technological research findings is so costly for RTOs that they can not carry out commercialization process by themselves. In the other hand, industries which are in competitive environment, for sustainable growth require superior new products and technologies which enable them in competitive scope. Industries often have frequent financial and human resources and this leads to their advantage to commercialization process, because those assets provide possibility for adapting huge risk. The lost ring in this chain is the link between RTOs as the developer of technology and industries as the adapter of technology. Entrepreneurship could solve this problem by providing this lost ring and linking RTOs and industries. Corporate entrepreneurship is one of the entrepreneurship types and is defined as some entrepreneurship among the available corporate companies. Entrepreneurship looks for introducing new products and organizational systems in the scope of corporate. Entrepreneurship has five different kinds and each of them carries out entrepreneurship in its own style. Among these, Acquisitive and Opportunistic entrepreneurship have the highest fitness to enrich and enhance coexisting relation between industries and RTOs to commercialize technological findings.

Lack of integration between research and technology, and the gap between scientific ideas and goods & services, are clear facts of todays life. Developed countries have invited creative solutions to overcome such challenges. Science and Technology parks are among them, which have critical roles in integrating knowledge management loops (including creation, sharing, and applying) in the cycle of knowledge management. Science and Technology parks enable the companies to apply immediately the knowledge which has been created by the knowledge workers and scientists. In this article after reviewing the knowledge management literature, Science and Technology parks typologies is under survey. The relation between this typologies and entrepreneurship and the common points among different Science and Technology Parks are the next points. The final review is about the outcomes of applying knowledge management procedure in the Science and Technology parks.

Creation of university spin-off companies as an academically entrepreneurship activity can be considered as a growing mechanism for university technology transfer. In comparison with technology licensing, Spin-off companies create higher financial return for owners of technology and will play an important role to regional and national economic development. This paper is to define university spin-offs in more detail and make clear the importance of these companies. University authorities are interested in these companies, but need to know about different types of these companies for establishment and management university spin-offs. So, in this paper we have also tried to submit a comprehensive categorization of university spin-offs.

Entrepreneurship could be considered as an opportunity based management of resources and opportunity recognition is the main differentiating skill of entrepreneurs from the rest of population. Unfortunately no measurement tool for this skill has been developed. In this paper a new tool based on Murphy decomposition of skill and lens model of Egon Brunswik is introduced. An example is provided for further clarification and areas in which the tool could be developed and used are discussed.

nowledge-based development as the key element of the countrys 20- year National Vision as well as the fourth Development Plan requires National innovation system (NIS) to facilitate innovations in both macro and micro social levels. The NIS system emerges as functions based on entrepreneur university as the third generation university to succeed. Therefore, alongside education and research, undergoing big changes of traditional universities and accepting economical development, brings about the conductivity of technological innovations especially in high tech environments. This, in turn, strengthens the NIS foundations providing a proper platform for knowledge-based development. This has many positive and successful examples worldwide regardless of culture or boudndaries. The paper deals with different aspects of this subject.
