dc.descriptionObjective: To explore how Regional Innovation Systems (RISs) interact and influence the development of dynamic capabilities in firms. In particular, the goal is to identify opportunities to improve collaboration and knowledge exchange among key actors within the RIS of Norte de Santander (Colombia).Design/Methodology: A quantitative approach with a descriptive design was employed. To collect data, a questionnaire—validated by experts—was administered to 119 companies in the region. Subsequently, data analysis enabled the identification and characterization of the RIS’s main actors. As a result, a network map was created to visualize the connections between them.Findings: Despite the presence of relevant actors in the RIS under study—such as service, commercial, and manufacturing firms; the National Training Service (abbreviated SENA in Spanish); the Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander; and various government entities—collaboration among them is still limited and poorly coordinated.Conclusions: The lack of coordination hinders firms’ ability to develop dynamic capabilities necessary to adapt to changing environments and capitalize on innovation opportunities.Originality: The study’s main contribution is a visual tool—network map—that illustrates the relationships between RIS actors and highlights areas for strengthening strategic alliances and enhancing business capabilities. Additionally, it offers an updated perspective on how the RIS under analysis operates in the region, with potential for application in similar contexts.en-US
dc.descriptionObjetivo: explorar cómo interactúan los sistemas regionales de innovación (SRI) y su impacto en el desarrollo de capacidades dinámicas en las empresas. El objetivo de identificar oportunidades para mejorar la colaboración y el flujo de conocimiento entre los distintos actores del sistema en el departamento de Norte de Santander (Colombia).Diseño/Metodología: para lograrlo, se aplicó un enfoque cuantitativo con diseño descriptivo. Se diseñó un cuestionario validado por expertos para recolectar datos, que se administró a 119 empresas de la región. A partir del análisis de los datos, se identificaron los actores clave del sri y se caracterizaron sus roles, lo que permitió crear un mapa de red para visualizar las conexiones entre ellos.Resultados: aunque existen actores relevantes en el SRI —como empresas de servicios, comerciales y manufactureras, el SENA, la Universidad Francisco de Paula Santander y entidades gubernamentales — la colaboración entre ellos es limitada y poco articulada.Conclusiones: la falta de coordinación dificulta que las empresas desarrollen capacidades dinámicas que les permitan adaptarse a entornos cambiantes y aprovechar oportunidades de innovación.Originalidad: como aporte principal, el estudio propone una herramienta visual —el mapa de red— que ilustra las relaciones entre los actores y destaca áreas de mejora para fomentar alianzas estratégicas y fortalecer las capacidades empresariales. Además, ofrece una perspectiva actualizada sobre el funcionamiento del SRI en la región, con potencial para replicarse en contextos similares.es-ES
