Abstract

Purpose: Triple Helix (TH) collaborations involves university, industry and government to provide a networked infrastructure for shaping the dynamic fluxes of knowledge based on innovations locally and these fluxes remain emergent within the domains.
Methodology: In this study, we analyze the mutual information flow among university, industries and governmental organizations (U-I-G) . The study was conducted with Scientometrics approach. The research populations consisted of 367 Iranian scientific centers with publications indexed in Scopus during 1997-2012.
Findings: The findings show that the T (UIG)index, is -0.18 that in compare with other developed nations and even in developing countries is not significant. The Institute for Research on Fundamental Sciences (IPM) exhibited the highest number of international collaborations.
Conclusion: It can be concluded that intersectional collaboration patterns in Iran is weak.  However, the number of publications on Scopus remains satisfying.
