Resumen

Objetivo del estudo: Este artículo busca explorar, a partir de la bibliometría con análisis factorial, las bases conceptuales de las redes temáticas de cooperación tecnológica y patentes en biotecnología.

Metodología: Fue realizado un análisis factorial exploratorio (AFE) para análisis cuantitativa, utilizando el software BibExcel y el test Kaiser-Meyer-Ohlin (KMO) (software SPSS). La matriz de menciones y citaciones resultó en 86 artículos distribuídos en tres factores, según el análisis de similaridad (software Iramuteq).

Originalidad/relevancia: El término “redes de cooperación tecnológica” se está difundiendo cada vez más en la academia y en el sector de biotecnología. Sin embargo, su concepto viene de diferentes campos teóricos y en la literatura aún falta convergencia.

Resultados: La principal contribución de la pesquisa fue la identificación de tres factores convergentes, a saber: 1) el papel central de la empresa de biotecnología en la articulación del conocimiento de las innovaciones y de las tecnologías producidas y diseminadas en las redes de cooperación tecnológica; 2) la patente como un recurso valioso que concentra y destaca conocimientos, innovaciones y rutas tecnológicas para la empresa, sus redes y la industria; 3) pesquisa concebida como una actividad en red que promueve la intersección entre la ciencia producida en las universidades, las tecnologías concebidas en las empresas y la divulgación para la industria y la sociedad de artículos, patentes e innovaciones.

Aportes teóricos/metodológicos: Este estudio puede contribuir para el avance del conocimiento científico al identificar los factores convergentes del campo conceptual de las redes de cooperación tecnológica en biotecnología.
