The purpose of this study, however, is to offer a model of effective variables on success or failure of nanotechnology start-up companies in Iran. The study population involves: managers, owners and experts in the field of nanotechnology. Due to limited statistical population, global census from the population was performed; also both companies with background above 3 years and companies who came out of this industry were taken into account. The effective variables on success or failure of nanotechnology start-up companies in Iran were identified reviewing the literature, then analyzed the data using two-way ANOVA test in MINITAB®.
