Abstract

This paper analyses Argentina's response to the evolving global agri-biotechnology industry landscape, driven by the diffusion of gene editing as an emerging innovation since 2015. The proposed analytical framework connects the industry's technological trajectory with its institutional configuration. The study is based on a series of interviews with key sectoral informants and a review of specialised secondary sources. The analysis concludes that the national response has led to the consolidation of a scientific and technological system of some international relevance and an increasingly dynamic business base, although it has faced limitations in coordinating and mobilising a heterogeneous and limited set of resources towards a common strategic focus.
