Abstract

As incubadoras de empresas têm sido apontadas como atores importantes para o desenvolvimento de empresas e até de regiões. As incubadoras são criadas para facilitar o empreendedorismo, provendo condições mais favoráveis às empresas nascentes, até que possam graduar-se. Um dos benefícios apontados às incubadoras é a provisão de uma maior e qualificada interação social, de onde podem emergir possíveis colaborações. Neste artigo examinamos a importância das incubadoras como nó de rede de relacionamento das empresas incubadas, a partir da proposta original de Soetanto e Van Geenhuizen (2007). O argumento é que se as incubadoras cumprem este papel de facilitar a integração em redes relacionais, o seu desempenho será diferenciado. Trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, numa amostra de 37 incubadoras de base tecnológica, com o uso do método de rough set, a partir dos dados coletados no SAPI - Sistema de Acompanhamento de Parques Tecnológicos e Incubadoras de Empresas, fruto do Programa Nacional de Apoio a Incubadoras de Empresas e Parques Tecnológicos (PNI). Os resultados revelam que as incubadoras localizadas em áreas metropolitanas, tipicamente com maior acesso a recursos de conhecimento e a recursos tangíveis, influenciam positivamente a relação de empresas candidatas e das vagas para incubação. Também apresentamos resultados que indicam que incubadoras que fornecem serviços agregados além da tradicional disponibilização de infra-estrutura atraem mais empresas candidatas. Concluímos com uma discussão alargada e que há necessidade de melhor entender o efeito das redes relacionais geradas durante a incubação e a efetividade da incubadora.
