    Este estudio analiza la importancia de las fuentes de conocimiento internas y externas (basadas en la ciencia, el mercado y la asistencia técnica) de acuerdo con la tipología de innovación de las empresas (innovadoras y potencialmente innovadoras). Para este propósito, se utilizaron datos de la Encuesta de Desarrollo e Innovación Tecnológica EDITS VII (2018-2019), una encuesta oficial que recopila información sobre la dinámica de innovación de las empresas del sector servicios en Colombia. Los datos fueron analizados mediante procedimientos de análisis multivariante conjunto, el cual realiza simultáneamente dos procesos de optimización: reducción de dimensionalidad y agrupación. Los resultados indican que las empresas innovadoras otorgan mayor importancia a las fuentes internas de conocimiento, en comparación con las potencialmente innovadoras. De forma similar, para las empresas innovadoras es más relevante el acceso a fuentes basadas en el mercado y en la asistencia técnica. Respecto a las fuentes científicas, solo se evidencia diferencias significativas en la importancia del conocimiento derivado de las universidades entre las tipologías de empresas analizadas. Finalmente, se encontró una relación inversa entre el carácter familiar y la importancia otorgada por las empresas a las fuentes de conocimientos internas y externas para innovar. Asimismo, las empresas que invierten en I+D y en formación otorgan una mayor importancia a las fuentes de conocimiento internas y externas para innovar.

    This paper aims to analyze the importance of external and external sources of knowledge (based on science, market, and technical assistance) according to the innovation typology of firms (innovative and potentially innovative). For this purpose, data from the Technological Development and Innovation Survey EDITS VII (2018-2019) were used, an official survey that collects information on the innovation dynamics of companies in the service sector in Colombia. The data were analyzed using joint multivariate analysis procedures, which simultaneously perform two optimization processes: dimensionality reduction and clustering. The results indicate that innovative companies give greater importance to internal sources of knowledge, compared to innovative ones. Similarly, for innovative companies, access to market-based sources and technical assistance is more relevant. Regarding scientific sources, only significant differences are evident in the importance of knowledge derived from universities among the types of companies analyzed. Finally, an inverse relationship was found between the family character and the importance given by companies to internal and external sources of knowledge to innovate. Likewise, companies that invest in R&D and training give greater importance to internal and external sources of knowledge to innovate.
