Abstract :
Research and development couldnt promote public welfare and national wealth without commercialization. Commercialization is one of the complicated stages of technological innovation process and there is no deterministic pattern for this stage. The minimum requirements for successful commercialization of new technologies are as follows: adequate demand in market, superior potential performance to responses this demand, and an entrepreneurship organization or person with the sufficient resources, marketing and managing capabilities for delivering final product to market. One way to facilitating and accelerating commercialization is benefiting from exiting industries, which have required equipments to commercialize research findings and also have free capacity. In this paper after defining commercialization, benefits of using existing industries to commercializing research centers finings will be explain and then some of the current barriers which are in industries and research centers to benefit of existing industry for commercialization research results will described.
