    Gatekeepers são atores-chave que conectam diferentes sistemas regionais de inovação e podem ajudar a renovar o conhecimento. Este artigo aborda os fatores determinantes da função de intermediação entre inventores, segundo diferentesmétricas de gatekeeper. O estudo é baseado em um painel rico e único de 48.022 inventores brasileiros de 2000 a 2012. Os principais resultados mostram associação positiva entre a função de intermediação e pertencer a uma instituição de ensino superior/pesquisa, possuir conhecimento em alta tecnologia e ter um nível de educação mais elevado. Dois outros determinantes relevantes são possuir conhecimento especializado e pertencer a instituições públicas.

    Gatekeepers are key actors who connect different regional innovation systems and can help renew knowledge. This paper addressesthe drivers of gatekeeping using four different gatekeeper metrics. The study is based on a rich and unique panel of 48,022 Brazilian inventors from 2000 to 2012. As a result, we found a positive association between gatekeeping and some variables, such as belonging to a higher education/research institution, possessing knowledge in high technology, and having a higher education level. Two other relevant driversare having specialized knowledge and belonging to public institutions
