All over the world there is a huge complex problem caused by the sting of poisonous animals. In many countries all around the orb there are some animal species hazardous for human beings. A case from a Mexican University R&D institute-Private firm innovation project about scorpion's antivenins health area is presented. The scientific-technological allied participant organizations performed a long life cycle innovation project, which includes research and development, knowledge transference, antivenin product development, sales launch and diffusion of the antivenin products to society market contributing with the problem solution within the country overseas. The scorpion's poison antivenin basic technology was first developed by the

“…Algunos investigadores han explorado la relación entre estos dos indicadores y han concluido que la inversión en I&D es un insumo, mientras que el conteo de patentes es un resultado del proceso de innovación (Geisler, 2002). Las investigaciones de Duguet y Kabla (1998) y Brouwer y Kleinknecht (1999), entre otras, confirman una estrecha relación entre gasto en I&D y registro de patentes en estudios transversales.…”

“…Las relaciones obtenidas entre los dos indicadores de desempeño usados como variables dependientes y las variables explicativas seleccionadas (inversión extranjera directa, fuentes externas de innovación y concentración de la innovación) se constituyen en una guía para la diferenciación de las estrategias gubernamentales dirigidas a estimular el gasto en I&D de aquellas que incentivan el registro de patentes. Esta diferenciación es importante si se tiene en cuenta que la inversión en I&D y el conteo de patentes son indicadores de progreso y cambio tecnológico en el ámbito industrial y a nivel nacional (Geisler, 2002).…”

ResumenEsta investigación contrasta los determinantes del esfuerzo innovador y del conteo de patentes de sectores industriales de una economía emergente. En muchos estudios se tiende a considerar el gasto en I&D y el conteo de patentes como indicadores de desempeño innovador. Sin embargo, el presente trabajo prueba que el esfuerzo innovador y el registro de patentes son dos comportamientos diferentes, no directamente relacionados y sin los mismos determinantes. Se usan datos provenientes de la tercera encuesta de desarrollo e innovación tecnológica (DANE–DNP–COLCIENCIAS). Los resultados sugieren que las condiciones del desarrollo tecnológico e institucional de Colombia se reflejan en relaciones entre determinantes y los dos indicadores de desempeño innovador, distintas de las que se observan en países industrializados.Abstract In this research are contrasted the determinants of R&D investment and patent count of industries belonging to an emerging country. In many studies is common to consider indistinctly these indicators as a proxy of innovation performance. However, this research shows that R&D investment and patent count are two different behavior: these don not have necessarily a direct relationship and the same determinants. It was used de data provided for third survey of Innovation and Technology Development (in forward EDIT) (DANE–DNP–COLCIENCIAS). The results obtained suggest that the institutional and technological conditions of Colombia are reflected in some relationships between innovation determinants and both innovation performance indicators used different from that observed in industrialized countries.

“…The application of the measurement of scientific and technical activities and outcomes has been a lengthy and challenging process of selection of the appropriate metrics and the assignment of the standards and benchmarks for their usage (ARROW, 1980;GEISLER, 2000;GEISLER, 2002;POLLOCK & CRUZ, 1999). Much of this research was based on the conceptual framework that emerged from given disciplinary areas.…”

“…It attempts to discover the possible connections between two bodies of knowledge that should have -in the opinion of the proposer -a measure of convergence. This exploratory research is aimed at discovering and identifying those conceptual frameworks in the philosophy of science under study that may serve as a foundation for the generation of metrics of R&D and S&T (GEISLER, 2000;GEISLER, 2002). As it now stands, metrics are applied in a somewhat opportunistic manner.…”

The application of the measurement of scientific and technical activities has been a lengthy process of the appropriate metrics and the assignment of the standards and benchmarks for their usage. Although some studies have addressed issues of the management of science and technology and their relation to scientometrics and infometrics, there is nevertheless a need to consider the linkages between the conceptual background of scientific generation and progress -and the measurement of its process and outcomes.This paper first reviews the three main approaches to the generation and progress of human knowledge in general and scientific activity in particular. These approaches are reviewed in terms of the demands they would make on the measurement of scientific process and outputs. The paper then examines the currently used categories of metrics, and arrives at several conclusions.The paper provides an analysis of these conclusions and their implications to the generation and utilization of metrics of science and its outcomes. The review of the conceptual or philosophical foundations for the measurement of science offers an in-depth examination, resulting in the correlation of these foundations with the metrics we now use to measure science and its outcomes. The paper suggests research directions for a much needed link between theories of science and knowledge, and the application of metrics used to measure them. Finally, the paper offers several hypotheses and proposes potential empirical studies.
