Transferência de conhecimento: a perspectiva empresarial

Ernani Carvalho da Costa Neto, Marcelo Gattermann Perin, Gabriela Cardozo Ferreira

Resumo


Competitividade e diminuição dos ciclos tecnológicos têm conduzido as empresas a buscar diversas fontes de inovação, com destaque para a interação entre universidade e empresa, por meio da transferência de conhecimento. Entretanto, as diferenças de cultura e estrutura organizacionais de universidades e de empresas representam desafios à efetividade do processo de transferência. Assim, esse artigo explora dimensões relevantes no processo de interação universidade e empresa, tendo como perspectiva a visão de empresas inovadoras do ambiente econômico Brasileiro. Foram entrevistados 14 executivos de empresas com processos de interação com universidades, e identificadas cinco dimensões na visão das empresas: as motivações para se engajar nas colaborações, as atividades de transferência realizadas nas interações, os fatores intervenientes, facilitadores e barreiras às transferências, assim como os resultados de inovação esperados. Foram também avaliados os principais indicadores componentes de cada uma destas dimensões, considerada a realidade de empresas Brasileiras.

Palavras-chave
