The aim of this study is to analyze the legal model of Brazilian Technology Parks and present the benefits and weaknesses resulting from its legal personality that can affect their management model. The research analyzed 30 parks that are now operating in Brazil. In five of them, it was not possible to identify their legal model. The results showed that most Parks has legal configuration as a Foundation (36.67%) and association (26.67%). 13.33% are managed by the Government. Five parks have status of social organization, as follows: Botucatu Technology Park, São José dos Campos Technology Park, Porto Digital, Sergipe Technology Park and Paraíba Technology Park. Two parks are a joint capital company (Sapiens Park of Florianópolis and Tecnoparque of Curitiba). In general, social organizations do not follow the public system and therefore do not need to conduct bids. However, these entities do not enjoy other benefits such as immunity and exemption from taxes, as occurred with the foundations.
