ABSTRACT: Innovation ecosystem is related to the formation of
networks for collaboration and sharing of knowledge and structures. Thus, the
objective of this research is to prospect in the scientific literature for strategic
actors that integrate innovation ecosystems. It is bibliographical research,
carried out from the survey and analysis of theoretical references about the
object of study. Furthermore, it is
qualitative in terms of approach and exploratory in terms of purpose.
The survey of scientific production was carried out in the SCOPUS database,
from the application of filters and temporal delimitation. Fifteen scientific
articles were selected and analyzed according to the following elements: year
of publication; title; authors; summary; key words; theoretical foundation,
results, conclusion and number of citations. Data were organized and tabulated
in electronic spreadsheets and the results were presented in the form of graphs
and tables. The results demonstrate an increase in the volume of scientific
production, showing that the theme has been receiving attention from
researchers. Through the qualitative analysis of the selected scientific
production, it was possible to perceive a heterogeneity of actors in the
process of structuring and activating innovation ecosystems, depending on the
sector of activity. However, it was observed that the actors that make up the
Triple Helix can be considered strategic actors, regardless of the sector in
which the innovation ecosystem operates.
