Patentes y crecimiento económico: ¿innovación de residentes o no residentes?

Resumen

Este artículo presenta evidencia empírica sobre el impacto que tienen las patentes en el crecimiento económico de ocho países de América Latina, durante el periodo 1990-2011. Se estima una función de producción tipo Cobb-Douglas para cuantificar el efecto y magnitud las patentes registradas por residentes y por no residentes sobre el PIB, controlando por variables como la formación bruta de capital fijo y la fuerza laboral. Los resultados empíricos muestran que existe una relación de largo plazo positiva y significativa, en la cual el impacto de las patentes registradas por residentes sobre el PIB es inferior al presentado por las patentes registradas por no residentes en aproximadamente 0,02%.

Palabras clave: crecimiento económico, patentes residentes, patentes no residentes, función de producción, raíces unitarias panel, cointegración panel
