PROPENSÃO À COLABORAÇÃO DA INDÚSTRIA NO CEARÁ: UMA ANÁLISE ENTRE A OFERTA E A DEMANDA DE TECNOLOGIAS

The objective of the research was to identify the propensity for collaboration between providers and demanders of technology in Industry 4.0 of Ceara. For this, a survey was carried out on technology providers that sought to understand the institution's technology, as well as its application and its value proposition for the industrial sector. The objective questions aimed to measure the level of maturity of the technology, and also to raise the willingness to collaborate with a company interested in investing in the technology to develop it. In the case of demand, we sought to raise one to two problems or opportunities existing in the company that could be solved through the development of a technology, which the respondent should describe and point out the level of severity, urgency and tendency of the problems or opportunities. It was possible to identify that most of the offerers already have a product ready for the market, while the claimants have a greater need precisely for these ready products. Followed by the finished products, the research showed that the industries are also very interested in collaborating in the development of technologies that are still in the research phase, portraying that part of their problems will not be solved with a standard product and must be individualized.
