PINO GARCIA, Gabriela; AGUILAR BARAJAS, Ismael  and  AYALA GAYTAN, Edgardo Arturo. The role of trust in collaborative innovation projects. A theoretical-methodological proposal. Econ. soc. territ [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.58, pp.629-655. ISSN 2448-6183.  https://doi.org/10.22136/est20181219.

This paper addresses the role of trust in the generation of collaborative innovation. The research methodologies, antecedents, temporality, and conceptualization of trust are analyzed. The foregoing is linked to its dimensions and forms of operationalization that have been used in different contexts to understand collaborative innovation. A theoretical-methodological model is developed to explain the construction of trust in innovation projects, as a complex and expensive process. The model can be applied in different areas, including territorial, for example, in the evaluation of regional innovation systems.

Keywords : trust; collaborative innovation; innovation projects; regional innovation systems.
