The objective of this study was to analyze the influence relation between learning competence and organizational adaptation on the capacity for innovation in Colombian industrial companies. For this, a convenience sample of 1571 Colombian industrial companies with data in 100 variables extracted from the EDIT Industria 2017-2018 survey was selected, and a correlational model and a logit regression model were used; they were analyzed in the Stata statistical software. The most relevant correlation results show that, individually, the learning and adaptation abilities positively and significantly relate to the capacity for innovation. For its part, the regression model shows that the marginal effects vary considerably when learning and adaptation capacities are measured jointly versus the capacity for innovation.

Keywords : Innovation capacity; learning capacity; adaptability; Colombian industry; manufacturing; product innovation.
