Uma análise da intensidade tecnológica da indústria de transformação brasileira entre 2010 e 2015

Abstract

The present work intends to analyze the patterns of technological intensities of the productive sectors of the Brazilian transformation industry. For the sake of understanding, we start from the classical view, proposed by the OECD, that the high technological intensity segments are the only R & D suppliers, to the detriment of the less technologically intensive sectors. However, it is worth considering other forms of innovation that go beyond formal R & D spending. To identify these patterns, we used indicators of technological intensity such as R & D expenditure structure and the formal employment stock (RAIS). In order to analyze the sectorial innovations in relation to the companies that innovated by product or by process, data from the Research of Technological Innovation (PINTEC), made by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE), were used. From the analysis, it was also possible to present the profile of the countries belonging to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) in relation to the technological standards of the Brazilian industry. In order to verify the evolution of the export and import tariff of the Brazilian manufacturing industry, the Foreign Trade Information Analysis System, known as Comex Stat, was used by the Ministry of Industry, Foreign Trade and Services (MDIC).
