Abstract

RESUMEN A pesar del importante papel reconocido a los aspectos territoriales y del propio entorno regional en la innovación tecnológica, la escasa participación demostrada por las empresas insulares en actividades de I+D+I, ha mermado la efectividad del Sistema Canario de Innovación para convertir los resultados de las investigaciones científicas y tecnológicas en nuevas oportunidades de negocios. Aspectos tales como la búsqueda de recursos con los que financiar la innovación o la escasa disponibilidad de personal cualificado en el mercado, se revelan como barreras a la investigación e innovación empresarial en el Archipiélago, señalando, explícitamente, las estrategias a seguir por los responsables institucionales para mejorar el Sistema Canario de Innovación. ABSTRACT In spite of the important role recognized to the territorial aspects and the own regional environment in the technological innovation, the little participation demostrated by the insular firms in activities of R&D, has decreased the effectiveness of the Canary System of Innovation to turn the results of the scientific and technological investigations into new opportunities of businesses. Aspects such as the search of resources to finance the innovation or the little availability of qualified staff in the market, are shown, among others, like barriers to the investigation and enterprise innovation in the Archipelago, indicating, explicitly, the strategies to be followed by the institutional people in charge to improve the Canary System of Innovation.
