Abstract
This article aims to study the university-industry interactions in Brazil focusing on the relationship between the knowledge transfer channels from universities and PRIs (Public Research Institutes) and the firm’s innovative performance. For this purpose, it was used data from a survey with 314 companies in Brazil about the university-industry interaction. Based on the bivariate probit model, it was noticed that, some knowledge channels from university and PRIs have a positive relation with the firms’ innovative performance in Brazil. Within channels’ categories, those linked to informal activities and licensing have direct relation on the product innovation likelihood, while only the informal activities channel has a positive effect on the probability of process innovation.
