Resumen

Adopting innovative practices is important for companies seeking to compete in the market. The manufacturing industries are perhaps the ones with the greatest capacity for generating innovation, given that their activities involve a significant production process for manufacturing products. The aim of this study was to assess the perception of entrepreneurs in Cascavel/PR about the level of innovation in their industries. A descriptive statistical analysis was carried out. The database used was a primary survey of 60 manufacturing companies in Cascavel/PR. The information was collected using a questionnaire adapted from the Industrial Technological Innovation Survey (PINTEC). The results show a low level of innovation and, above all, a lack of new products and processes introduced to the market by the industries, which, according to theory, can negatively influence competitiveness and even threaten the survival of these industries in the market.

Keywords: Cascavel/PR; competitiveness; industry; market; micro and small companies; technological innovation.
