Resumen

Este artículo proporciona a los profesionales un análisis de empresas con patentes verdes del sector manufacturero, relacionando las características económico-financieras de las empresas con el número de sus patentes verdes nacionales y Europeas. En particular se analiza la relación entre la colaboración con centros de I+D y la posesión de patentes verdes. Los resultados, obtenido a través de una base de datos ad hoc de 1606 empresas españolas, indican que la capacidad colaborativa para la investigación y el desarrollo (I+D) proporciona una útil explicación de la tenencia de patentes verdes en las empresas manufactureras españolas. Además, la performance financiera de las empresas, su antigüedad y tamaño, se consideran relevantes para el desarrollo de patentes verdes.
