Resumen

Este trabajo analiza la actividad innovadora en los Estados Unidos a través del número de patentes otorgadas en este país de 1965 a 2005. Haciendo uso de la base de datos generada por la Organización Mundial de la Propiedad Intelectual (OMPI), buscamos encontrar la presencia de uno o más cambios estructurales en las series de patentes otorgadas en este país. Igualmente argumentamos en este trabajo que la actividad patentadora en este país ha cambiado su tendencia después que fue aprobada la Ley Bayh-Dole en 1980, afectando las capacidades innovadoras de sus empresas, así como su competitividad.
