Desenvolvimento econômico e sistemas nacionais de inovação: um estudo de caso do Programa Veículos Elétricos do Parque Tecnológico de Itaipu

Abstract

The economic development in emergency economies faces an amount of international resistance due to the central economies that profits on the maintenance of the established trade paradigm between the center and the other countries known as commodities exporters. This phenomenon is not new, but it's impacts countries like Brazil until nowadays. The worst consequence of this neoliberal thinking for the emerging economies is the mindset we adopt and accept that our competitiveness is only found in primary products and selling cheap labor for international companies. The recent implantation and development of National Innovation Systems here in Brazil represents our chance of changing this mindset showing, national and internationally, the quality and the innovational aspects that our products and creations can have. But, for this to succeed we need the same help that all the developed economies had in their process of industrialization, an Entrepreneurial State.
