The study aims to observe the critical success factors (CSFs) of the technology transfer (TT) process within a developing country context. Based on a literature review, a list of 15 CSFs is created. Then, these CSFs are examined empirically in the context of technologies transferred into the health sector in Bangladesh. The study uses data collected from 35 experts and adopts two techniques, namely interpretive structural modelling (ISM) and DEcision MAking Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL), in order to understand the causal relationships among CSFs that have influenced TT. The findings show that among the studied factors, 'Management Support', 'Strategy and Goal' and 'Government Regulation' has the most significant impact on the success of TT implementation in the Bangladesh health sector. The paper is one of the rare studies in technology management literature by brings together ISM and DEMATEL techniques as well as offering an empirical study carried out in the health sector of a developing country context. The findings will enable TT practitioners to select the most appropriate CSFs for successful TT in context to developing countries. The paper ends with a summary and put forward suggestions for future studies.
