Resumen

Las empresas necesitan abrirse en muchas ocasiones a la colaboración con diversos actores para llevar a cabo sus proyectos de innovación y, a la vez, deben contar con mecanismos para prevenir posibles fugas indeseadas de conocimiento que dificultarían la apropiación de los beneficios en la fase de comercialización. Aunque resultados recientes muestran que distintos mecanismos de apropiación (formales o estratégicos) pueden tener un efecto diferenciado sobre la decisión de cooperar con socios externos, la mayoría de estas investigaciones eluden la importancia del contexto y se centran en empresas ubicadas en economías desarrolladas. En este trabajo, se analiza el comportamiento de esta relación en el contexto de las economías emergentes y, en particular, en las empresas manufactureras de Colombia. Los resultados muestran que, si bien el uso de los dos tipos de mecanismos afecta de forma positiva la probabilidad de cooperación de las empresas estudiadas, el tamaño del efecto difiere entre los tipos de cooperación y también cuando la cooperación se limita al objetivo específico de la i+d. Las implicaciones que se derivan del análisis tienen interés tanto para la comprensión de la estrategia empresarial como para las políticas de innovación.
