VERRE, Vladimiro; MILESI, Darío  e  PETELSKI, Natalia. Appropriation strategies in the context of public-private collaboration in argentine biotechnology. Econ: teor. práct [online]. 2017, n.47, pp.31-64. ISSN 2448-7481.  https://doi.org/10.24275/etypuam/ne/472017/verre.

Innovative activity is critical to a business, and offers the opportunity to benefit from its results. To achieve this objective, firms develop a strategy of appropriation, based on the use of various existing mechanisms of appropriation. This paper studies nine Argentine firms in the biopharmaceutical sector, which is characterized by intensive innovation, which is inherently cooperative, as firms systematically use external and public sources of knowledge. Public-private partnership necessarily impacts firms’ appropriation strategies, which need to consider the risks and benefits inherent to an innovation process of such characteristics. The traits collaboration between the parties assumes are critical to identify the specificities of the relationship between collaboration and appropriation, in a science and technology intensive sector which is strategic for Argentina due to its accumulated scientific and productive capabilities.
