- Portuguese knowledge intensive business services: What do we know about them? Luísa Carvalho Sandra Pinto Estudios de Turismo KIBS CIS 2008 Portugal evolution innovation In Europe, most of the earlier studies applied to KIBS (knowledge intensive business services) were developed in North European countries (Finland, Sweden, Norway, UK or German) where that research is already consistent and widespread. However, the study of KIBS is in its infancy in other European countries. In this article we demonstrate that research into Portuguese KIBS is still very recent and incipient. We also aim to contribute to the discussion of the significance of KIBS to Portuguese economy where the weight of services sector is preponderant. We present a literature review showing how the KIBS have evolved in Portugal by drawing portraits of two decades. We complement this with an empirical study using the Community Innovation Survey (CIS) 2008. We emphasize that there is still much to learn about Portuguese KIBS. 2013 artículo científico 2182-8458 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=388743878016 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3887 Tourism & Management Studies application/pdf Universidade do Algarve Tourism & Management Studies (Portugal) Num.1 Vol.9
