Resumo: The objective of this study was to measure the degree of innovation of micro and small enterprises (MSEs) in the state of Sergipe. For this purpose, we conducted a survey of 1,260 MSEs that participate in the Local Innovation Agents Project of SEBRAE (Brazilian Service to Support Micro and Small Enterprises) in Sergipe, among firms in the food, civil construction, lumber and furniture, health, and textile and apparel sectors. The tool used to measure innovation was the innovation radar, developed by Sawhney, Wolcott & Arroniz (2006), which uses 12 dimensions: offerings, platform, customers, solutions, relationship, value capture, processes, organization, supply chain, presence, networking and brand. This tool was complemented by the innovation ambience dimension of Bachmann & Destefani (2008), because an organizational climate propitious to innovation is a prerequisite in companies. Among the results were that the average degree of innovation of the MSEs in Sergipe was 2.01, which indicates still incipient innovation in the sample of firms analyzed.

Foi realizada survey com 1.260 MPEs participantes do Projeto Agentes Locais de Inovação do SEBRAE em Sergipe, entre empresas das cadeias produtivas de alimentos, construção civil, madeira e móveis, saúde, têxtil e confecção. A ferramenta utilizada para medir o grau de inovação foi o radar da inovação, desenvolvido por Sawhney, Wolcott e Arroniz (2006), que se utiliza de doze dimensões: oferta, plataforma, marca, clientes, soluções, relacionamento, agregação de valor, processos, organização, cadeia de fornecimento, presença e rede. Essa ferramenta foi complementada por Bachmann e Destefani (2008) com a dimensão ambiência inovadora, pois um clima organizacional propício à inovação é pré-requisito na empresa. Como resultados, vale destacar que o grau de inovação médio encontrado nas MPEs em Sergipe foi de 2,01 que indicam ainda ser incipiente a inovação nesse grupo de empresas sergipanas e, portanto, as empresas foram classificadas como pouco inovadoras. FUCAPE Business Shool2014-07-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo revisado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://www.bbronline.com.br/index.php/bbr/article/view/23110.15728/bbr.2014.11.4.1Brazilian Business Review; Vol. 11 No. 4 (2014): July to August 2014; 1-27Brazilian Business Review; v. 11 n. 4 (2014): Julho a Agosto de 2014; 1-271808-23861807-734Xreponame:BBR.
