Résumé
"Economic structure integration is an expression of market complexity that depends on the level of technology that has been adopted. This work is based on the premise that, in developed countries, the high technology industry (HTI) has greater productive linkage, which allows it to spread any growth momentum. The paper questions the role of the HTI in expanding innovations in the Colombian and Mexican economies. Using a qualitative input-output analysis, we prove that the spreading degree of the HTI is similar between these economies. The results point out that, while Colombia has higher innovative propagation in domestic structure, Mexico has a greater effect on the output. Nonetheless, the HTI is diffusive in both economies but they receive innovations only when imported intermediate inputs are used in the production process. In the Mexican economy, innovations expand due to the use of imported intermediate inputs."
