Abstract:
This research studies the collaborative relationships between firms and organizations interacting in five industrial and service clusters in Uruguay: the rubber and plastic cluster in Montevideo and Canelones, the pharmaceutical industry in Montevideo and Canelones, the dairy industry in the coast and south-west of the country, the hotels and restaurants in Colonia and the cluster of hotels and restaurants in Salto. Data was obtained in a fieldwork where face-to-face interviews were conducted with company managing directors in these five clusters. Subsequently, social network analysis was combined with multivariate regression techniques to estimate the causes and effects of inter-firm cooperation, with special attention to the relationship between innovation and cooperation networks. In addition to identifying sectoral and territorial particularities, results allow to identify several causes and consequences, both of cooperation and innovation activities.
