Abstract	In this paper, first we shall define a list of technology transfer barriers in the biotechnology field through interviews and literature reviews. Next, we shall categorize them into four major categories of technology, and at last introduce all of the hypotheses on the existence of relationship between each part of technology and failure in the technology transfer process. Questionnaires consisting of two parts were created and handed out to all of the specialists and biotechnology idea-holders in the Iranian National Research center of Biotechnology, Lidco Co, Iran Pastor Institute, Biotechnology Department of University of Tehran, etc. Going on, we've evaluated the factors' validity through statistical tests and the recognized barriers' priorities in each category, which were generally, identified by Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) via the software Expert Choice. These priorities describe the high importance of organization-ware (34.1%), information-ware (27%), technique-ware (20.7%) and eventually human-ware (18.1%) respectively.
