Abstract: Countries development is measured through the advancement of technologies which have a higher advantage for human beings by means of minimizing their effort in tedious works and making their living styles quite simple. The drastic changes in technologies from time to time and the potential of scholars to bring out new technology outcomes in different sectors make them to distract one another and lead to establish a dramatic connection among countries. Inadequate understanding of the meaning of technologies, strong requirement of time and effort of researchers, dynamism of technologies from place to place, geographical location of countries, institutional structures and arrangements, lack of clear setup to identify new technology visualizers and their outcomes, lack of clear guidance between technology recipients and senders, misuse and right allocation of funds, improper usage of information centers, secretes of basic science of some technologies, and natural need of technology trial risk taking bodies are some of the main issues that make technology transfer at infant stage in regional integrations. In addition, technical skill and knowledge development from higher educational institutions have an everlasting advantage for the technological advancement of a country. This paper focused on the four kinds of technology; Hardware, Info ware, Orgaware, Human ware and on the two kinds of technology transfer models- Vertical and Horizontal. In addition, the study observed the technological development of roadmap relying on the prepared document by Ministry of Science and Technology. In conclusion, it displays the strategic measures considered to select and utilize technologies, specifies technology transfer approaches, and measures to be taken in time of collaborating with other similar institutional structures and technology roadmap development based on the Korean approach.
