Abstract

El objetivo del presente trabajo consiste en identificar el socio más adecuado para llevar a cabo una cooperación tecnológica. Con esta finalidad, proponemos un modelo empírico que interrelaciona las motivaciones para cooperar, la elección del socio tecnológico y el impacto que éste tiene sobre las actividades de innovación tecnológica. Para la estimación de nuestro modelo, hemos contado con los datos de la Encuesta sobre Estrategias Empresariales para los años 1999, 2000 y 2001. Los resultados de la aplicación sugieren que las empresas, cuando persiguen objetivos tecnológicos, optan como primera opción por llegar a acuerdos de colaboración con clientes y proveedores. Sin embargo, el impacto tecnológico de los organismos de investigación (universidades y centros tecnológicos) es superior, tanto en términos de la culminación del proceso innovador -en nuevos productos y/o procesos- como en la contribución al aprendizaje tecnológico de la empresa -incentivando la generación de activos intangibles-. Este resultado pone de relieve 1) que los organismos de investigación tienen potencial para jugar un papel crucial como instituciones de apoyo tecnológico al tejido industrial, pero 2) que el conocimiento de dicha institución por parte del sector productivo es aún escaso.
