摘要：Organizational context has a strong role in decisions of entrepreneurs who work inside firms. However, there seems to be a lack of research on the role of organizational context in cognitions of corporate entrepreneurs (Intrapreneurs) and specially the interaction of the individual and context. The main objective of the current paper is to explore the role of organizational context in cognitive abilities of intrapreneurs to identify, evaluate, and exploit entrepreneurial opportunities inside the established firms in health sector. For this purpose, nine intrapreneurs in two Iranian health organizations were selected and interviewed during 2017 and 2018. The results of the in-depth interviews were analyzed and used for suggesting a framework of the role of organizational context in cognitions of intrapreneurs. The findings show that organizational context has a strong influence on many aspects of entrepreneurial cognition which affect identification and exploitation of entrepreneurial opportunities inside health organizations. The suggested framework shows that regarding cognitions of corporate entrepreneurs, organizational context has three functions: organizational context acts as a source, as a framework, and as a socio/cultural context. The findings of the current paper have implications for researchers in corporate entrepreneurship field, as well as executives and corporate entrepreneurs.
