ABSTRACT In the current context, information, knowledge and innovation are essential to society, the economy, and territorial and organizational development. It is for this reason that ever since the year 1995 Cuba has implemented a science, technology and innovation system to establish links between the scientific community, the business community and the government. A diagnostic study was conducted based on the scientific historical-logical and dialectical method with the purpose of becoming acquainted with the historical foundations of knowledge management and their relationship to the system of science, technology and innovation, as well as with the knowledge management capacities and limitations of structures from the Ministry of Science, Technology and the Environment in Pinar del Río. A questionnaire was applied to collect the data, and document analysis was performed which comprised the study of texts on the specialty and reports about the main lessons learned. Results show that these organizations do not manage to effectively transfer the information, knowledge and innovations available in the academic community to the business community. An action program is proposed which includes designing a knowledge management model, building networking capacities, renewing knowledge, articulating the social communication strategy so that it permits greater visibility, and fostering the development of the scientific potential in keeping with territorial priorities.

Keywords : knowledge management; science; innovation; academic community; business community.
