Acesso em:.https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/1954In an economical context, where intangible factors, like innovation and learning assume a increasing importance in the productive process, the regional innovation system becomes an important instrument of economical development.. The state of Pará reveals an economy seated in the primary production, with low technological intensity and low competitiveness. In order to demonstrate the innovative capacity of the state of Pará in the optics of its regional system of innovation, the research analyses the processes of adoption an diffusion of innovations in three different sectors. Further, investigates the relationship among productive sectors, the university and the public politics of S&T. In spite of the existence of an important institutional arrangement of R&D, the interaction absence among the agents restricts the generation, diffusion and adoption of new technologies, denoting a reduced regional innovative capacity. That condition is worsened by the fragility of the public politics of S&T, configuring a deformed and disjointed regional system of innovation.porAcesso AbertoPará - EstadoInovações tecnológicasPlanejamento regionalRelação universidade-setor produtivoDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS SOCIAIS APLICADAS::ECONOMIA::ECONOMIA INDUSTRIAL::MUDANCA TECNOLOGICA
