| Nowadays, a large part of company properties and assets is related to intangible assets. In this study, a conceptual model was presented to identify the factors affecting technology valuation in the field of financing by using grounded theory. For this purpose, a model was provided by using the opinions of the experts of Isfahan Regional Electricity Distribution Company and a comprehensive review of technology valuation selection for analyzing financial decisions in the area of financing and investment in the solar energy industry. To develop the presented model, a qualitative model was applied based on grounded theory. Regarding all the above-mentioned cases in this study, the technology valuation model for the analysis of financial decisions in the field of financing and investment in the solar energy industry was designed based on the experts’ opinions. In addition, there are three main categories (valuation model, technology organization, and investment) and nine sub-categories (valuation model, technology organization, and investment) and nine sub-categories (low cost, exclusive experience, technology value, communication, technological infrastructure, agility, knowledge management, human resources, new financing model). To ensure whether the factors are selected correctly or not, a content validity analysis was conducted for each category. Based on the results, all of the categories had the required sufficiency to be included in the valuation model. Then, the structural equation model was used to model the relationships of indicators in LISREL software to determine the effect of each factor on each other and its main factors. Based on the obtained results, the relationship between the sub-category of human resources and the technology organization in the financing valuation model was insignificant with the impact factor of 0.24. Therefore, this criterion cannot be considered in the financing valuation model. However, the relationship of other factors with their main criteria in the financing valuation model was significant. Finally, the model validity was investigated by using statistical tests. |
