this short paper presents results based on special tabulations prepared by ibge, using data from pintec in order to focus on the interaction between firms and universities in the brazilian industry. the basic hypothesis states that the relevance of universities as a source of information to the firms' innovation activities is greater when firms are engaged in r&d activities (both internal and external). the hypothesis is not rejected neither for the industry as a whole nor for inter-sectoral analysis.
