Abstract
DIAZ PEREZ, Maidelyn; CASAS GUERRERO, Rosalba and GIRALDEZ REYES, Raudel. Analysis of collaboration networks in innovation for development. Coodes [online]. 2019, vol.7, n.1, pp. 5-25. Epub Apr 02, 2019. ISSN 2310-340X.
The interest in developing research aimed at solving specific problems of society, has gradually generated a change in the ways of doing research. Today, methodological instruments are needed to obtain more data about the context where innovations are made, to know the: social context (researchers and institutions), the geographic (countries, cities, regions), the temporal context (time series), the thematic context (areas of knowledge where research has been developed), the relational and participatory context (collaborations and triple helix relationships established in the development of innovations). Therefore, the objective of this research is to apply the Triple Helix model approach to the analysis of the behavior of an innovation domain, based on a case study. Techniques and metric indicators are used for the analysis of information, adapting the methodological procedure to the analysis of social networks. The relevance of this research is the possibility of applying the entity, collaboration, as a unit of analysis and measurement to know the knowledge networks that are established in the development of innovations; besides being able to identify data coming from the innovations that allow to describe some innovative scenarios, as well as certain linking mechanisms that are established in the endogenous developments. What transcends this research is the possibility that shows to be able to apply this methodological approach to different levels of aggregation and in different domains of analysis, which can range from national programs to specific research projects for cooperation.
