Estratégias de inovação sob a perspectiva da Resourced-Based View: Análise e evidências em empresas de base tecnológica

Abstract

The aim of this paper was to analyze the innovation strategies of technology-based companies from the Resource-Based View (RBV) perspective. Therefore, the research strategy adopted was a multiple-case study, which was carried out in four companies. Data analysis was performed in two stages: within-case analysis and cross-case analysis using the Atlas.ti software. As for the innovation strategies, it was found that the four companies take a reactive approach to changes adopting mostly exploitative innovation strategies through open innovation and incremental innovation. From the perspective of the VRIO model, some intangible resources stand out, such as know-how, organizational culture, entrepreneurial capacity, and innovation capability. It is concluded that both the technological and strategic changes required reinforce the importance of the RBV perspective for the selection, acquisition, or improvement of tangible and intangible resources of technology-based companies.
