Abstract

This research aims to identify clusters of business segments for the use of cooperative agents for the development of innovations in the manufacturing industry of Brazil. Data from 2008 of Pesquisa de Inovação Tecnológica - PINTEC (Survey of Technological Innovation) were analyzed by cluster analysis technique, in order to facilitate the grouping of industries present in the PINTEC’s data from the patterns of cooperation shown between companies and other agents of innovation. In this sense, there was a larger low valuation of the external cooperation agents, mainly universities and research centers, indicating an innovation model that is still far from the concept of open innovation. On the other hand, the information networks and consumers and suppliers stood out as important innovation agents.
