ABSTRACT

This article aims to present the main indicators for Science, Technology, and Innovation (ST&I) generated by the Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de Minas Gerais (FAPEMIG) in four years (2008-2011). The methodology used was a case study, with documentary research, held in the annual reports of activities of the foundation. The results showed that all indicators analyzed in aggregate form, evolved gradually. It is concluded that the FAPEMIG comes complying with their mission to induce and encourage research and scientific and technological innovation for the development of the State of Minas Gerais in the southeast region, maintaining the recognition as one of the main agents of development inductors ST&I in Brazil.
