Resumo: Technological innovation is deemed strategic for organizations and nations to achieve and sustain competitive advantage. One of the most effective means for companies to achieve these innovations is through the relationship with universities. Thus, this study aimed to identify the main factors that motivate companies to establish this partnership. Hence, a descriptive study was elaborated, in which respondents are companies that have some level of cooperation with universities and institutes of science and technology. The results obtained show that the main reasons are, according to their importance: (1) to strengthen the technology, (2) to search for new sources of creativity, (3) to obtain expertise in market-oriented technologies, (4) to acquire new technologies; (5) to reach skilled labor, (6) to train their human resources, and (7) to develop new products. Furthermore, this study found that the less important factors are related to social reasons; this finding deserves further investigation in future studies.

Um dos meios mais efetivos para que as empresas obtenham essas inovações é por meio da relação com universidades. Nesse sentido, neste estudo o objetivo foi hierarquizar os principais fatores que motivam empresas a estabelecer esse tipo de parceria. Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo descritivo cujos respondentes são empresas que mantêm algum nível de cooperação com universidades e institutos de ciência e tecnologia. Os resultados demonstraram que os principais motivos são, por ordem de importância: (1) fortalecer a tecnologia; (2) buscar novas fontes de criatividade; (3) obter expertise em tecnologias para o mercado; (4) adquirir novas tecnologias; (5) acessar mão de obra qualificada; (6) capacitar seus recursos humanos; e (7) desenvolver novos produtos. Ademais, neste estudo verificou-se que o fator de menor importância está associado às razões sociais, que merecem ser mais bem investigadas em estudos futuros.Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategies2016-04-14info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed Articleapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistafuture.org/FSRJ/article/view/22610.24023/FutureJournal/2175-5825/2016.v8i1.226Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategies; Vol. 8 No. 1 (2016): Future Studies Research Journal; 113 - 140Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategies [FSRJ]; v. 8 n. 1 (2016): Future Studies Research Journal; 113 - 1402175-5825reponame:Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategiesinstname:Fundação Instituto de Administração (FIA)instacron:FIAporenghttps://www.revistafuture.org/FSRJ/article/view/226/336https://www.revistafuture.org/FSRJ/article/view/226/351Copyright (c) 2016 Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategiesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMazzola, Bruno GiovanniNishimura, Augusto TakerissaGermano, Edson CarlosSilveira Junior, Luiz Antonio Bloem da2017-01-12T17:19:12Zoai:ojs.future.emnuvens.com.br:article/226Revistahttps://www.revistafuture.org/FSRJ/oai2175-58252175-5825opendoar:2017-01-12T17:19:12Future Studies Research Journal: Trends and Strategies - Fundação Instituto de Administração (FIA)false
