Abstract:

Este trabajo explora la distribución espacial del éxito innovador de las empresas en Ecuador entre 2012 y 2014. Los datos cuentan con una muestra de 6275 empresas con representatividad provincial. En base a esta información, los objetivos que persigue esta investigación están orientados a i) establecer si existe o no relaciones espaciales en las provincias del Ecuador y ii) resaltar políticas estatales que contribuyan a la innovación. Los resultados muestran que existe influencia espacial en el éxito innovador. Asimismo, el modelo planteado sugiere políticas orientadas a la innovación mediante apoyo del Gobierno así como financiamiento por parte de la banca privada.

This paper explores the spatial distribution of the innovative success of companies in Ecuador between 2012 and 2014. The data has a sample of 6275 companies with provincial representation. Based on this information, the objectives pursued by this research are aimed at i) establishing whether or not there are spatial relationships in the provinces of Ecuador and ii) highlighting state policies that contribute to innovation. The results show that there is a spatial influence on innovative success. Likewise, the proposed model suggests policies oriented towards innovation through government support as well as financing from private banks.
