Esforços de internacionalização, Investimento em P&D, Resultados de inovação, Pequenas empresasResumo
Objetivo: O principal objetivo deste estudo foi examinar em que medida os esforços de internacionalização moderam a relação entre investimentos em pesquisa e desenvolvimento (P&D) e resultados de inovação realizados por pequenas empresas, ou seja, pequenas e médias empresas - PMEs. Metodologia: A metodologia utilizada consistiu em uma pesquisa quantitativa com dados de 10.621 PMEs de 17 países da América Latina. O presente estudo envolveu análises fatoriais e regressivas. Principais Resultados: Os resultados obtidos levaram à conclusão de que os esforços de internacionalização têm uma influência positiva e estatisticamente significativa nos resultados de inovação, permitindo que as PMEs dos países da América Latina aumentem sua competitividade por meio da construção ou melhoria de produtos, serviços ou processos. Contribuições teóricas: No final da pesquisa, também foi concluído que os investimentos em P&D influenciam positivamente os resultados de inovação e que as empresas que investem em P&D e também empregam esforços de internacionalização têm mais probabilidade de apresentar inovação. Relevância e originalidade: Foi a primeira vez que um estudo avaliou conjuntamente e empiricamente o efeito moderador dos esforços de internacionalização na relação entre investimentos em P&D e resultados de inovação, totalizando uma amostra de 10.621 PMEs. Contribuições gerenciais e sociais: Este estudo também contribuiu para o conhecimento da América Latina, portanto, espera-se que se alcance uma maior compreensão das barreiras para o desenvolvimento das PMEs, por meio do avanço dos esforços de internacionalização, investimentos em P&D e inovação. Dessa forma, o objetivo é incentivar acadêmicos e profissionais a buscar soluções para superar essas barreiras.
