Abstract

The National Science, Technology and Innovation System in Colombia has promoted various strategies to improve Innovation Management, such as the business growth and development strategy called Pacts for Innovation. Alliances for Innovation Program, the initial phase of this strategy, has the purpose of promoting the culture of innovation. The Chamber of Commerce Manizales por Caldas has led the implementation of this program at the department. The impact analysis of this program has been carried out by means of applied explanatory research, with the support of researchers from the Universidad Autónoma de Manizales. For its development, an instrument for the collection and analysis of information was designed and validated, based on the guidelines of the Innovation Route guide defined by Confecámaras. The in-depth interview investigation technique was applied to company managers to collect primary information. This study shows the results for companies in the Solidarity Sector. The impacts of the Alliances for Innovation Program; science, technology and innovation activities; the benefits, drivers and barriers to innovation; the progress in the innovation components and the gaps in Innovation Management were analyzed. The strategies for closing gaps in this case study illustrate the need to promote these programs to promote culture and innovative mentality, generation of capacities in human talent for innovation, consolidation of the strategy and processes of innovation management, as well as the promotion of social innovation projects.
