Abstract
GATICA NEIRA, Francisco Eduardo and RAMOS MALDONADO, Mario Alejandro. Public policies and networks for the development of 4.0 technologies in Chile. PAAKAT: rev. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2020, vol.10, n.19, e475. Epub Jan 27, 2021. ISSN 2007-3607. https://doi.org/10.32870/pk.a10n19.475.
This article analyzes public policies and networks for the development of 4.0 technologies in Chile, based on the study of the FONDEF-IDEA project portfolio, from 2012 to 2017. Through a syntactic analysis of the titles, objectives and summaries, they selected the specific initiatives that have direct or indirect application of 4.0 technologies, on an initial basis of 530 public initiatives. The different specializations and the social network were analyzed. Our conclusion is that we do not observe at the public policy level in Chile a strategy that stimulates the decentralized development of these new technologies. There is a high centrality in the network of sensor applications in copper mining, monitoring and the conversion of data to information, there is still an important gap to be covered by public policies. In our opinion, it is urgent to have a technological development strategy that narrows the gap with the countries that are already in the lead.
