En este artículo se desarrollaran una serie de indicadores de innovación en el sector manufacturero colombiano, para mostrar la dinámica y evolución de la innovación a nivel empresarial. Los indicadores se concentran en cuales de las empresas industriales son innovadoras (o no innovadoras) y si desarrollan innovación estricta, amplia o potencial. Así mismo, se identifica cual es el nivel de alcance de la innovación en productos, proceso, comercialización y organización. Posteriormente se presentan los indicadores de personal ocupado e inversión en las actividades de ciencia, tecnología e innovación (ACTI), en especial el número de empresas inversionistas, el monto invertido y la participación de la inversión por empresa.This paper develops a series of innovation indicators in the Colombian manufacturing industry to set forth the dynamics and evolution of corporate innovation.

Results showed which companies are innovative (and which not) and if they develop radical, incremental, or transformational innovation. Likewise, the scope of the innovation level in products, processes, commercialization, and organization was identified. Afterwards, occupied personnel and investment in Science, Technology, and Innovation Activities indicators are presented; especially the number of investors and the amount invested are presented. It is concluded that, when comparing innovative companies participation in the different periods analyzed, as time passes, less companies develop innovative activities and potentially innovative ones have been decreasing in participation, demonstrating that less industry companies are planning to attain a new or improved product or process in the international or national market.
