As a result of multiple linear regression analysis, it has been identified that while the intermediary collaboration with technopark management and TTO, firm-firm collaborations, collaboration about R&D and human resources with university and informal collaborations have a positive and significant effect on technology transfer performance, collaboration on the use of infrastructure has a negative effect and collaboration about education with university has no significant effect.
