Abstract: This study focuses on the interactions between economic agents, verifying the assumption that innovation and competitiveness in an industry are systemic and progress together. In this sense, were used the approach of the Sectoral Innova­tion System defined by Malerba (2002), analyzing the relationship between the dimensions of analysis: organizations, institutions and technologies, in the Indus­try of Sugar and Ethanol in Alagoas, the largest producer and exporter in the Northeast. After an exploratory and descriptive search, the results indicated a positive interaction between those three dimensions of analysis; and showed that there is interaction between universities and research centers, and much of the technological advancement comes from public and private partnerships. It is no­teworthy that the research effort focuses on genetic improvement and on innova­tions of process. Thus, the study indicates that there is an innovation system lo­cally circumscribed.
