Abstract: | A shift in the technological strategies of the Brazilian companies with origins in the defense industry has taken place due to the economic changes they have faced. Embraer, an important company in the Brazilian defense industry, has successfully revamped its business strategy dramatically. Others, such as Avibras and Engesa, have not fared as well in this shift. A model for the shift of companies whose technological competencies change due to market forces is presented and it is discussed how such companies respond to these strategic decisions. |
