Abstract
Las regiones europeas presentan diversos retos sociales
y económicos. Para superar estos desafíos
es necesario que cada región identifique dominios
prioritarios sobre los que concretar las dinámicas
de innovación y sus ventajas competitivas, en pos
del desarrollo y la resiliencia regional. Las dinámicas
innovadoras de una región dependen de los
actores existentes y de su conectividad, por lo que
la resiliencia de un determinado sistema de innovación
puede ser analizada a través del estudio
de las redes de innovación. Este artículo estudia
el caso de Algarve, una región periférica en el sur
de Portugal, por medio del Análisis de Redes Sociales.
Los resultados identifican grupos temáticos
de prioridades para la especialización inteligente y
potencialidades para la mejora del sistema. Sugieren,
además, que las políticas públicas deben hacer
esfuerzos para estimular la cooperación para la
innovación, evitando la concentración excesiva de
recursos y el protagonismo de actores específicos.
European regions face several social and economic challenges. To overcome these challenges, each region needs to identify priority domains that promote innovation dynamics and represent competitive advantages for development and regional resilience. The innovative dynamics of a region largely depends on existing actors and their connectivity, so that the resilience of a given innovation system can be analyzed through the study of innovation networks. This article studies the case of Algarve, a peripheral region in the south of Portugal, through the use of Social Network Analysis. The results facilitate the identification of thematic groups of priorities for smart specialization and potentialities for the system improvement and suggest that the public policies must make efforts to stimulate the cooperation for the innovation, avoiding an excessive concentration of resources and the prominence of specific actors.
