Abstract

The aim of this paper is to estimate the role of territory and the individual firm in innovation in the Brazilian industrial economy after the trade-opening period from1998 onwards. This study is based on a database whose micro-data are a merger between the Technological Innovation Survey (PINTEC) and the Yearly Industrial Survey (PIA) of the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE). These micro-data are analyzed by the logit regression method as well as using hierarchical regression models. The main results reveal that firm-level variables and region-level variables are complementary but with the former having more impact on the propensity to innovate than the latter.<br>O objetivo desse artigo é identificar o papel do território e da firma na inovação da economia industrial brasileira após o período de abertura econômica em1998. Esse artigo baseia-se emuma base de dados cujos microdados são provenientes da fusão da Pesquisa de Inovação Tecnológica (PINTEC) e da Pesquisa de Inovação Industrial (PIA) do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE). A base de dados é submetida a métodos de regressão logística e hierárquica. Os principais resultados revelam que variáveis ao nível da firma e região são complementares, sendo que os primeiros possuem impacto superior sobre a propensão a inovar das firmas em relação aos últimos.
