This work used a qualitative research approach through a case study. The data were collected using documents, direct observation and interviews.

The 31 relationships identified were considered at the level of technological activities and sustainable activities of higher education institutions, with an emphasis on technological activities of curricular structure and sustainable activities of relationships with stakeholders, where one of the 21 activities in the study presented relations with other activities. This work denotes the importance of investigations that, in addition to technological capabilities, promote the analysis of sustainable capabilities, based on the analysis of relationships among the phenomena, for the improvement and development of technological capabilities in this context of convergence between innovation management and organisational sustainability.
