Abstract

Public policies are fundamental to innovation because they establish guidelines to encourage the development of a region and nation. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the differences and similarities between two policies of global development – the Goal 9' of Agenda 2030 and the Brazilian National Science, Technology and Innovation Strategy 2016-2022. We focused on the presence or the absence of incentives for open innovation, especially with the adoption of Hackathon, Bootcamp and Crowdfunding practices. The methodology involved a comparative study between Goal 9' of Agenda 2030 and the Brazilian National Science, Technology and Innovation Strategy 2016-2022. We used the Content Analysis method to evaluate both of those policies based on the Categorical Analysis technique. As a result, we found that both policies encourage open innovation practices, but Hackathon, Bootcamp and Crowdfunding strategies are not explicitly discussed in these policies.

Resumen

Las políticas públicas son fundamentales para la innovación porque establecen directrices para fomentar el desarrollo de una región y una nación. El propósito de este artículo es analizar las diferencias y similitudes entre dos políticas de desarrollo global: el Objetivo 9 de la Agenda 2030 y la Estrategia Nacional brasileña de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación 2016-2022. Para ello, nos centramos en la presencia o ausencia de incentivos para la innovación abierta, especialmente aquellos relacionados con la adopción de prácticas de Hackathon, Bootcamp y Crowdfunding. La metodología utilizada incluyó un estudio comparativo entre el Objetivo 9 de la Agenda 2030 y la Estrategia Nacional Brasileña de Ciencia, Tecnología e Innovación 2016-2022. Para evaluar ambas políticas, se utilizó el método de análisis de contenidos basado en la técnica de análisis categórico. Como resultado, se demostró que ambas políticas fomentan las prácticas de innovación abierta, pero las estrategias de Hackathon, Bootcamp y Crowdfunding no se incorporan explícitamente en estas políticas.

Palabras clave: innovación abierta; ciencia, tecnología e innovación; Agenda 2030; Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible; hackathon; bootcamp; crowdfunding.
