The present work investigates university-industry interactions in Brazil using CNPq's research groups as a proxy.

The results point that in 2002 relationship reflected low sophisticated academic inputs, towards adaptations, and in 2004 a closer relationship between universities and firms are observed, showed in relationships based in scientific research and technology transference. This result were in accordance with Brazilian's National System of Innovation, but also suggests that much more can be done fostering academic knowledge transference to firms in the country.
