Como a interação universidade-empresa é remunerada no Brasil: evidências dos grupos de pesquisa do CNPQ

The aim of this paper is to investigate the funding of university-industry interactions in Brazil from DGP/CNPQ. The responses of 2,726 groups of interactive research relating to Census 2008 were analyzed. Analysis shows that the most frequent remuneration were the transfer of financial and material resources and also to a lesser extent remuneration based in the generation and exchange of tacit knowledge and staff exchanges. Through a multinomial logit econometric model the characteristics that influence the type of remuneration in university-firm cooperation were analyzed, and the results suggest that scientific excellence, the research group knowledge area, the mode of interaction and the industrial sector impact differently on the type of remuneration established.
