contents Mechanisms and Functions within a National Innovation System Joseph Gogodze Ingeniería Intangible Asset Structure Equation Model National Innovation System Global Innovation Index (GII) In modern society, the competitive success of countries is increasingly dependent on the effective management of their national inno- vation system (NIS). Therefore, understanding the mechanisms behind NISs has become essential. After reviewing the current understanding of the NIS concept and the existing measurement models, this study proposes to consider the NIS as an intangible (underlying) asset of a specific kind and identifies its seven fundamental components, which are extracted with a new measurement model, the Global Innovation Index (GII). This study employs the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) techniques to analyze the relationships among the components of an NIS. Our results support the existence of a causal link between the constituents of an NIS and provide several perspectives regarding NIS management opportuni- ties. In particular, we find that the efficient management of institutional capital is a key determinant of innovation success for non-high-income countries. 2016 artículo científico 0718-2724 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=84749343003 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=847 Journal of Technology Management & Innovation application/pdf Universidad Alberto Hurtado Journal of Technology Management & Innovation (Chile) Num.4 Vol.11
