Effectiveness evaluation of public policy incentive R&D in technological innovation in Brazil: a focus on law of the well

<p>The present paper will address pharmaceutical industries that carry out research, development and innovation (RD&amp;I) Brazil and their consequent adherence to tax incentives based on ‘Law of the Well’ (Brazilian, Law No. 11,196 / 2005). Our hypothesis evaluates if public policies of i...
