Abstract

Los cambios en el modelo de desarrollo y el acelerado proceso de globalización en la competencia por mercados domésticos y externos han presentado a las empresas mexicanas un reto de dimensiones considerables. A través de las actividades de ciencia, tecnología e innovación, la generación de capacidades tecnológicas juega un papel fundamental en sus posibilidades de éxito dentro de este ambiente. El presente trabajo estudia la generación de capacidades tecnológicas para conocer la estructura y desempeño de la industria manufacturera en México a principios del siglo XXI, destacando el papel de la inversión extranjera directa. Con base en estos factores se realiza una clasifi cación de sectores que han desarrollado capacidades tecnológicas (High-Tech) y sectores que no lo han hecho (Low-Tech). Se hace especial énfasis a la disponibilidad de información estadística y sus limitantes, lo cual permitirá sentar una base sobre la que se desarrollen estudios futuros. / Changes in the development model and the accelerated process of globalization in the competition for domestic and foreign markets have presented a challenge Mexican companies of considerable size.
