Abstract

Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) constitute a large percentage of Mexico's business structure and therefore have great importance in the economy. At the same time, little or no projection of these generates a gap of improvement for our country, that is, by finding optimal strategies for their development both within and outside the borders of our country, the impact on the economy would really benefit. For this reason, it is important to implement actions to improve the economic environment and provide direct support to SMEs in order to create conditions that contribute to their establishment, development and consolidation. A new product, aesthetic, technology and finishing processes, generate greater expectation even in a foreign market. As innovation takes a highly important role, since we start from a premise that SMEs need to develop innovative products to help them grow. For this reason this paper is intended to demonstrate as the joint action between government, universities and SMEs, can help a greater generation of innovation in SMEs in Mexico. Spain is a country with a major step forward in innovation, the relationship between these three agents may be determined by that calve q advance, so by a comparison of econometric models we can see if the agents of government, university and SMEs have a better relationship in Spain and is a strategy that Mexican SMEs could adopt.
