| Summary: | In view of the growth of Science Parks initiatives in the country and the multiplicity of actors involved, this study aims to investigate the differences in perceptions and practices between public and private actors involved in these ventures. Through the analysis of clusters and the discriminant analysis, using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) program, significant differences in perceptions were observed regarding the importance given by public and private actors to the variables: knowledge management, trust and investment. As for the actions, the public actors affirm to practice practices of trust, interdependence and wide participation in the decision processes with a multiplicity of involved, which is not confirmed by the private actors. Thus, despite the growth in the number of Science Parks in operation in the country revealing a predisposition to collaboration, the disagreement between the perceptions and collaborative practices carried out by public and private actors can compromise a challenge for the sustainability and durability of these enterprises. |
