    The objective for this project is to determine the cooperation impact about the innovative effort and the insertion effect of new technologies in companies of Ecuador. Starting from this, a bibliographic review has been carried out, which has made it possible to identify the different most influential variables in the cooperation process on innovation, such as the companies size, exporting, having a public financing, belonging to a business group, owning patents, among other regressors; cooperation, the effort in innovation and others as dependent variables, obtained from the innovation poll 2012-2014 that has a total of 6275 companies. For this, it was useful a multi-equation analysis model proposed by Crepón, Duguet and Mairesse (CDM). The results confirm the main hypothesis that cooperation has a positive and significante impact on investment in innovation in companies, as well as the location of the company and making exports are the main determinants of the innovative effort. On the other hand, the evidence suggests that companies with the greatest number of employees, who hold patents and associated with the innovative effort have been decisive in inducing a higher level of product or process innovation.
