Abstract

A vontade de construir uma economia baseada no conhecimento e na inovação tem justificado o compromisso de muitos países, incluindo Portugal, com políticas de estímulo ao investimento empresarial em I&D. A tendência geral para a definição das políticas em função de objetivos políticos de intensidade de I&D é a expressão mais visível do sentido de missão que os governos têm assumido neste âmbito. As alterações recentes nas políticas públicas de estímulo ao investimento empresarial em I&D levantam ou reavivam questões a diversos níveis que merecem uma análise crítica que não está a acontecer, nomeadamente em Portugal. Este artigo contribui para a discussão sobre o papel e os limites das políticas públicas no estímulo à I&D empresarial ao estimar o peso do investimento público na I&D empresarial em Portugal e analisar a sua evolução entre 1997 e 2010. Registou-se um crescimento sustentado do financiamento público à I&D empresarial em percentagem do PIB ao longo do período que atingiu 0,13% em 2009; em percentagem do BERD, a evolução foi intermitente mas os valores foram elevados, por vezes superiores a 18%.
