Summary:
Eco-innovations are fundamental to redefine the environmental impacts of productive activities towards a new paradigm of sustainable development. Yet, still little is known about how eco-innovations take place in firms, especially in emerging economies like Brazil. The purpose of this chapter is to portrait the landscape of eco-innovations in Brazilian firms, concerning the characteristics of eco-innovators, as well as the determinants, results, types of innovation, main environmental initiatives what cooperative arrangements take place for the development of eco-innovations. It presents the results of an unprecedented survey on ecoinnovative activities in Brazilian firms carried out in 2012. The methodology is quantitative, descriptive and explanatory, using precise measurement to provide a representative picture of eco-innovations in Brazil. The results show that firms are mostly driven by the opportunity to create new businesses with their eco-innovations. Moreover, it reveals that most ecoinnovative firms in our sample conduct systematic, in-house R&D activities; most ecoinnovative firms participate in cooperative arrangements for innovation especially with universities and research institutes; and most eco-innovations are organizational, with incremental impacts.
