Ítem Solo Metadatos La capacidad innovadora de las pymes peruanas en el universo del APEC(Universidad ESAN. ESAN Ediciones, 2003-06-30) Velasco, Dennis; López, KristianGlobalization, structural reforms and the processes of openness and integration have increased the competitive pressures that economic units must face, especially those of smaller relative size. Given that international experience shows that there is a close relationship between export capacity and the development of innovative activities in companies, it is relevant to investigate the degree of progress of innovative activities in SMEs, in order to assess their impact on competitiveness and in the consequent export capacity of these companies within the universe of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC). The objective of this work is to develop an Index of Innovative Capacity (ICI) that allows establishing the degree of the search for efficiency and new markets, elements that can determine the export potential and the level of profits of SMEs. In addition, the incidence of business development services on the level of profits and production is evaluated.
