CAICEDO ASPRILLA, HENRY. An analysis of the regional system of science, technology, and innovation in the State of Valle del Cauca. estud.gerenc. [online]. 2012, vol.28, n.spe, pp.125-148. ISSN 0123-5923.

This research work is aimed at applying the social network methodology in order to determine whether an innovation system is increasingly growing stronger in the Valle del Cauca. We find that there are only a few organizations in the region that are capable of supporting business innovation. This has hampered establishing a strong articulated system which, unlike the current environment, is aimed at getting companies to establish links with each other to provide business services with a high technological content that enables them to innovate. We conclude that the idea of innovation systems in the State of Valle del Cauca is more of an aspiration than a reality of technological development in the region.

Palabras clave : Regional development; innovation systems; technology transfer; social network.
