This essay aims to present the evolution of science and technology policies in Brazil to the Dilma Government and to identify how innovation has been incorporated into such policies. Three distinct phases were identified: the beginning of S&T policies in Brazil, where historical antecedents are treated; the evolution and consolidation of S&T policies themselves, from the governments of the military regime until the beginning of the new republic (1964-1990) and the incorporation of innovation into S&T policies in the post 1990s. It is clear that innovation is gaining ground, notably on the agenda of discussions, but it is effectively from the creation of sectoral funds in 1999 that Brazil explicitly relies on the innovation embodied in its S&T policies. This fact will be positively reflected in regional, state and municipal development policies. From that point on, innovation gains more and more space within government policies, which now refer to the trinomial C, T & I.
