| Sumario: | This article examines empirically the university-industry collaboration (UIC) im-
portance in innovative
firms on Brazilian industry. This relation is considered an
important tool for economic growth in innovation-led
firms. It was used a hierarchical regression model for 25.667 innovative industrial
firms in the year 2005, the
innovation involves product, process, or organizational change. The Total Factor
Productivity was introduced as independent variable, because it can be used in all
firms as performance measure, and it was average centralized. The TFP is explai-
ned by
firm’s internal capabilities, and in industry by the UIC importance. The
found results are upward average (positive sign), and downward average (negative
sign). The sectorial impact of UIC in the TFP is positive, but near zero. The inter-
nal capabilities present exchanged signs between the
firm and the industry, only
innovative labor have both signs positive. The random effects identify nine indus-
tries with upward productivity gains, 8,26 % of total Brazilian industry, and these
industries are traditional, low-tech intensity, only the automotive industry is me-
dium-technology. Twenty industries have downward productivity gains, 18,35 %
of total Brazilian industry, and between them are high-technology industries, as
diverse capital tools, and electronics. |
