MANRIQUE HENAO, JORGE ALONSO; ROBLEDO VELASQUEZ, JORGE  and  LEMA TAPIAS, ÁLVARO. INNOVATION PERFORMANCE INDEX IN COLOMBIAN INDUSTRIAL SUBSECTORS BETWEEN 1996 AND 2005. Rev.fac.cienc.econ. [online]. 2014, vol.22, n.2, pp.79-95. ISSN 0121-6805.

Rates are calculated in different countries from innovation surveys raised under specifications from OECD's Oslo manual. Nevertheless, information characteristics do not allow direct comparability of the variables in Colombia during 1996 and 2005. This led to propose a new innovation performance index of industry based on importance value index methodology relativized and used in other areas such as ethno-botanical classifications. This methodology allows visualizing the phenomenon in both surveys conducted in Colombia and it is considered as a tool to correlate them. It was found that innovation industrial performance in 1996 was characterized mainly by the market and organizational innovation, while in 2005 its main feature was the potential innovation.

Keywords : Innovation performance index; Importance value index; Innovation surveys; Industrial subsectors; Industrial innovation.
