Resumo(s)
Internationalised companies in innovative industry need to create
means to innovate no matter the country they are from, because globe is the
competitive arena for all. Thus, internationalised IT companies from both
developing and developed economies must carry out similar innovation
management. However, studies comparing countries in different stages of
development are scarce. Through an exploratory approach, this study compares
the process of innovation management of four international IT companies from
an emergent economy (Brazil) and a small-developed economy (Portugal). The
results suggest some differences: Brazilian firms present a more undeveloped
way to manage both intellectual property and their internal structures of R&D,
while Portuguese companies implies higher investment in R&D and a faster
and earlier process of internationalisation. Thus, this study contributes to a
reflection on the traditional innovation model through the perspective of
country of origin and of the impact of companies’ internationalisation on their
innovation process.
