Journal Title: Roshd-e-Fanavari - Year 2007, Vol 3, Issue 12

Abstract

"Self assessment is an interesting subject for all managers, especially for the managers of incubators. The incubator performance assessment by indexes (IPAI) is a simple, interesting and effective method for measuring the performance index of an incubator. The system is based on changing the scope of performance of several indicators to fixed scales (metrics), weighing them and combining them. Strategic evaluation is basically consists of three basic activities which are investigating the principles of the companies' or organizations' strategies, comparing the ideal and real results and making improvements. This paper focuses on the second part to make sure that the performance adjusts correctly with the planning programs. This paper is going to introduce an index for measuring and assessing the level of technology improvement in Isfahan Science and Technology Town (ISTT's) Incubator and Science Park. It also addresses the methodology used for these calculations. Measuring the indicators for ISTT's incubator will be discussed at the final part of this paper as a case study."
