This research has designed and conducted to adapting Strategy Map and Balanced Scorecard techniques in the case of national technology strategy for evaluating the progress of National Iranian Nanotechnology Initiative (NINI). While conducting research, it realized that the layers of Strategy Map are in high accordance with National Innovation System (NIS) levels. Therefore, these two mentioned approaches combined by survey of experts. Integrating two approaches concluded us placing "Social Capital" at the bottom layer of the Strategy Map as the NIS infrastructure and economic development at its top layer as the NIS obtained.
