Abstract

[spa] ¿ Incitan las patentes a que las empresas industriales innoven? . Un examen microeconométrico . . Se supone que los derechos de propiedad intelectual, y sobre todo las patentes, protegen las empresas innovadoras al impedir que sus competidoras las imiten. El objetivo de semejante sistema radica en estimular el ritmo de progreso tecnológico al incitar a que las empresas lleven a cabo actividades de investigación y desarrollo. Este artículo analiza el comportamiento de innovación de las empresas francesas y trata de valorar la eficacia de ese sistema. Resulta que el uso de las patentes no es algo automático para las empresas; tan sólo cierto tipo de innnovaciones está patentado. Sólo las innovaciones de producto contribuyen de manera relevante en el depósito de patente. Las innovaciones de proceso, al contrario, parecen responder a una lógica bastante alejada de la de los derechos de propiedad intelectual. Al mismo tiempo, el sistema de patentes tendría un efecto incitativo fuerte en las innovaciones de producto, y no en las innovaciones de proceso. Las innovaciones favorecidas por el sistema sí que serían reales pero orientadas hacia las innovaciones de producto. Por otra parte, el reparto de los valores de las innovaciones de procesos registrado en nuestra muestra es concentrado y simétrico mientras que el de las innovaciones de productos es mucho más extenso y asimétrico igual que el reparto de los valores de las patentes.
