Resumen

Technology-based firms are a key driver for the growth potential of a country due to their capacityto introduce radical innovations and value into the economy. In this chapter, the authors propose adefinition for technology-based firms based on strategies that makes possible to identify the companieswith advanced use of technology (including knowledge) in all the sectors of the economy. This refineddefinition helps to identify this kind of companies and to orientate special public policies to foster theirdevelopment. For follower countries in terms of technology and innovation, as it is the case of Spain,technology-based firms may be a significantly different collective compare with advanced technologicalcountries. Thus, the authors propose a method to detect technology-based firms in not only high technology sector using a Technological Innovation Panel (PITEC) in Spain. This chapter confirms that thereare technology-based firms in many activities outside the high technology sectors that can be of interestfor public institution and investors.
