This thesis aims to provide elements to a better
comprehension of the National Innovation System functioning
dynamics, based upon a detailed investigation of a national
mobilization program for innovation - The Fine Chemistry
Program to fight against Tuberculosis - QTROP-TB. To this
end, it is formulated, at the beginning, a conceptual
structure formed by a Model to Science Evaluation and the
Innovation Systems concept. It is also shown a theoretical
reference to strategic analysis, including strategy
definitions and a description of how they are formed. To
better structuring the analysis, it is used a comparative
investigation between the Program and a well suceed
inovative entrepreneurship, at the beginnings of this
century, the Oswaldo Cruz Initiative. Then, it is made a
characterization of the investigated initiatives contexts
including an historical abstract of the scientific
development in Brazil. That development has conducted to
the science and technology organization found in the
country, described according to the Model to Science
Evaluation. The characterization is completed with a breef
description of the Brazilian industrializing process,
culminating with the Innovation Systems representations
related to each one of the initiatives. After that, both
initiatives strategies are analysed. Between the
conclusions, it is observed that the QTROP-TB Program, even
though the initial correct perception of the need to
coordinate efforts in S and T to better appropriate the
investiments made by the society, can fail due to the use
of an imperfect model to integrate universities,
enterprises, government and civil society, to the actions
focus wrong choice, to the planning process and
entrepreneurship management inappropriates. It is hoped
that these results may contribute to a better comprehension
of the National Innovation System what could help its
better performance. This thesis aims to provide elements to
