Biopharmaceutical innovation has had a profound health and economic impact globally. Developed countries have traditionally been the source of most innovations as well as the destination for the resulting economic and health benefits. As a result, most prior research on this sector has focused on developed countries. This paper seeks to fill the gap in research on emerging markets by analyzing factors that influence innovative activity in the indigenous biopharmaceutical sectors of China, India, Brazil, and South Africa. Using qualitative research methodologies, this paper a) shows how biopharmaceutical innovation is taking place within the entrepreneurial sectors of these emerging markets, b) identifies common challenges that indigenous entrepreneurs face, c) highlights the key role played by the state, and d) reveals that the transition to innovation by companies in the emerging markets is characterized by increased global integration. It suggests that biopharmaceutical innovators in emerging markets are capitalizing on opportunities to participate in the drug development value chain and thus developing capabilities and relationships for competing globally both with and against established companies headquartered in developed countries.

“…The dominant system of the identified gasification plants is the downdraft gasifier, connected to a gas engine and with a production of 15 to 280 kW. In the case of Latin America, although many species have been studied in SWRC systems, the development of gasification, liquefaction and pyrolysis has been limited [139]. These production values show the potential for biomass produced from SRWCs to become part of the feedstock of the pelletizing industry.…”

“…The dominant system of the identified gasification plants is the downdraft gasifier, connected to a gas engine and with a production of 15 to 280 kW. In the case of Latin America, although many species have been studied in SWRC systems, the development of gasification, liquefaction and pyrolysis has been limited [139]. For example, for the gasification process, some countries currently have established gasification equipment (Table 3), however, the biomass utilized comes from commercial plantations for pulp or residues of sawlogs [140][141][142][143][144][145].…”

“…In those countries where SRWC plantations are established, important installed gasification capacity is observed, as is the case in Chile [146][147][148][149], Costa Rica, Mexico and Argentina, among others. Utilization of biomass produced by SRWCs is possible in those countries since these plantations show biomass production levels above 20 Tn/ha (Table 2), which would be enough to supply the gasification plants [139,140]. However, in countries where SRWC development is limited, there are fewer opportunities for implementing biomass gasification, as is the case of Uruguay [145] and Colombia [150], where production of hydroelectricity or other clean energy sources is high.…”

Short Rotation Wood Crops in Latin American: A Review on Status and Potential Uses as Biofuel

Studies related to biomass production, with a focus on energy uses for short-rotation woody crops (SRWCs), are limited in Latin America. The research that is available relates to a variety of tested SRWC species (50 species), however, the most important species are Populus, Salix, Eucalyptus, Acacia, and Gmelina arborea. In the existing studies, stocking densities varied from 1111 to 20,000 trees per hectare, with square or rectangular spacing. One important advantage of SRWC systems in this region, compared to most regions worldwide, is the predictability of biomass yields due to the tropical climate conditions of the majority of the Latin American countries. Rotations of three and four years can be projected to produce total biomass yields of 30–50 tons/ha, with increments of 10–20 tons/ha/yr. Fertilization is performed in SRWC with the aim of preventing soil degradation and maintaining further production. In regards to possible uses of biofuel generated from SRWC in Latin America, an inconvenience is that there are neither well-established harvesting systems nor conventional pre-treatments to process the biomass. Processes that are available in the region that use biomass from SRWC for energy production are gasification and pellet production. Other potential biofuel processes, such as torrefaction and biochemical conversion, are limited in this area.

“…Given the importance of technical knowledge for the company's competitiveness, the protection of property rights is essential to increase the share of profits resulting from technological efforts in highly competitive markets (Pereira and Vasconcellos, 2014). Thus, it is noted that the patent occupying a prominent position is one of the different forms and tools used to protect property rights (Duflou and Verhaegen, 2011).…”

During the product development, patents help identify new project opportunities and, if well analyzed, can reveal technical strategies in terms of how countries, companies, and universities link patents and product development. In the context of the agricultural machinery sector there is a complexity in the integration of data from patents with the stages of development conceptions. In this context, the article aims to present how the information obtained from a patent bank can be used for the development of agricultural machinery. As a methodology, the Systematic Bibliographic Review was selected to identify and relate strategies that add value throughout the agricultural machinery project. As a result, research has shown that the use of patent information can assist in the development of agricultural machinery from technical data. In addition, patents are characterized as a valuable source of technological information, as it is inexpensive and capable of feeding a company in its own research activity and in the development of new products. It is concluded that the information from patents, suggested as strategies in the model of agricultural machinery development, allows for managerial and technical decisions aimed at improving products. Finally, the research contributed to fill the information gap between patents and the development of agricultural machinery, a diffusion of data that, if well connected, can promote a competitive differential in companies.
