The limited natural resources of the Earth have presented various industries, including the dairy industry, with increasing challenges in the field of sustainable and efficient use of resources. The high consumption of water, energy, raw materials, as well as the significant production of waste and waste, especially organic waste, in this industry have exposed it to environmental pressures. In order to improve the performance of organizations, new approaches for the optimal use of resources have been introduced, one of the most important of which is the concept of circular economy. In recent years, researchers have tried to combine this concept with other management concepts to create an effective framework for improving the performance of organizations. The present study attempts to identify and model the concepts of circular economy from the perspective of the EFQM 2020 Excellence Model in the dairy industry. For this purpose, first, the key indicators of the circular economy were identified using a systematic literature review and interviews with experts, and then these indicators were classified in the EFQM framework with the help of a panel of experts. Finally, confirmatory factor analysis was used to assess the accuracy of the designed model. The results obtained indicate the appropriate fit of the model and the meaningfulness of the relationships between the components. The findings of this study can be used as a model for establishing an excellence approach in the dairy industry based on a circular economy and play an effective role in formulating national and industrial policies.

Nowadays, due to technological advances, many technology recipients act as technology providers, which has created new complexities in the technology transfer process. Therefore, this study seeks to answer the question of what are the dimensions and components that affect technology transfer from the perspective of the transferor? In this study, Sandelowski and Barso's meta-synthesis qualitative approach was used. During a systematic review of 188 initial articles, 33 articles related to the research objective were finally selected. The inclusion criteria comprised articles published from the perspective of the technology provider between 2008 and 2024. The kappa coefficient was used to assess the reliability of the findings, which shows an acceptable reliability of 0.75. To validate the proposed model and increase its acceptability, review methods were used by experts in this field. The results obtained were also confirmed and reviewed by experts. Based on the findings, the most important dimensions that affect the technology transferor include 127 components in 12 main dimensions; They are categorized into laws and policies, technology absorptive capacity, culture, economic factors, cooperation and communication, technology commercialization, human resources, training, intellectual property, technology adaptation, technology assessment, technology absorption.

The present study was conducted with the aim of designing a green e-government model. For this purpose, after reviewing the literature on the subject and using the opinions of experts, a survey was conducted among the subject experts using snowball sampling, and the sample size was determined by considering the theoretical saturation rule to 12 people. 34 components were identified in the form of 8 main dimensions. The main factors affecting the implementation of green e-government are: citizen relationship management, service delivery management, human resource management, event management, legal requirements, financial management, strategic management, and cultural management; then, using the fuzzy cognitive map methodology, the relationship between the factors was explained. In this direction, the concept of cultural management with a score of 1.90 has the highest impact and citizen communication management with a score of 1.68 has the highest impact. The results also showed that strategic management with the highest degree of centrality is more fundamental than other concepts. Therefore, paying attention to this concept in creating green e-government is not only an undeniable necessity but also a vital need to assist managers in all areas of decision-making and planning.
