description Purpose: The study aims to analyze the contingent factors associated with investment decisions in R&D in family and non-family businesses. Methodology: The research was carried out through a survey, and the sample consisted of 47 companies in the industrial sector located in the states of the southern region of Brazil. Of the 47 responding companies, 26 are family businesses and 21 are characterized as non-family businesses. Companies are observed based on contingent characteristics: (i) in terms of time of activity, (ii) number of employees and (iii) management structure - whether family or non-family businesses, and how such factors relate to investments in R&D. The analysis was performed using descriptive statistics techniques and the analysis using the Chi-square test. Results: The results show significance between the time of activity of the companies, the number of employees and the management structure, with the perception that investments in R&D are necessary for the continuity of the business. It was identified that companies with the highest number of employees (above a thousand) are more interested in investments in R&D for business continuity. Companies with more than 50 years of activity are more interested in investments in R&D as a competitiveness strategy. The Covid-19 pandemic did not interfere with R&D investments in most companies in the sample. In general, the results show that contingency factors related to the structure of organizations are related to investments in R&D, both in family businesses and in non-family businesses. Contributions of the Study: The findings suggest that family businesses (larger and with a greater number of employees) tend to invest in R&D, as much as non-family businesses, in order to remain competitive. These results contribute to reflections and possibilities for further studies on the specificities of family businesses.

Objetivo: El estudio tiene como objetivo analizar los factores contingentes asociados a las decisiones de inversión en I&D en empresas familiares y no familiares. Metodología: La investigación se realizó a través de una encuesta, y la muestra estuvo conformada por 47 empresas del sector industrial ubicadas en los estados de la región sur de Brasil. De las 47 empresas que respondieron, 26 son empresas familiares y 21 se caracterizan como empresas no familiares. Las empresas se observan en función de las características contingentes: (i) en términos de tiempo de actividad, (ii) número de empleados y (iii) estructura de gestión, ya sean empresas familiares o no familiares, y cómo dichos factores se relacionan con las inversiones en I&D. El análisis se realizó mediante las técnicas de estadística descriptiva y el análisis mediante el Test Chi-Cuadrado. Resultados: Los resultados muestran significación entre el tiempo de actividad de las empresas, el número de empleados y la estructura de gestión, con la percepción de que las inversiones en I&D son necesarias para la continuidad del negocio. Se identificó que las empresas con mayor número de empleados (por encima de mil) están más interesadas en inversiones en I&D para la continuidad del negocio. Las empresas con más de 50 años de actividad están más interesadas en inversiones en I&D como estrategia de competitividad. La pandemia de Covid-19 no interfirió con las inversiones en I&D en la mayoría de las empresas de la muestra. En general, los resultados muestran que los factores de contingencia relacionados con la estructura de las organizaciones están relacionados con las inversiones en I&D, tanto en las empresas familiares como en las no familiares. Contribuciones del Estudio: Los resultados sugieren que las empresas familiares (más grandes y con un mayor número de empleados) tienden a invertir en I&D, tanto como las empresas no familiares, para seguir siendo competitivas. Estos resultados contribuyen a las reflexiones y posibilidades de nuevos estudios sobre las especificidades de las empresas familiares. Objetivo: O estudo tem por objetivo analisar os fatores contingenciais associados a decisões para investimentos em P&D em empresas familiares e não-familiares. Metodologia: A pesquisa foi realizada por meio de levantamento, sendo a amostra composta por 47 empresas do ramo industrial localizadas nos Estados da região Sul do Brasil. Das 47 empresas respondentes, 26 são familiares e 21 são caracterizadas como empresas não-familiares. As empresas são observadas a partir das características contingenciais: (i) quanto ao tempo de atividade, (ii) quantidade de colaboradores e (iii) estrutura de gestão – se empresas familiares ou não-familiares, e como tais fatores se relacionam com os investimentos em P&D. A análise foi realizada a partir das técnicas de estatísticas descritivas e de análise por meio do Teste Qui-Quadrado. Resultados: Os resultados evidenciam significância entre o tempo de atividade das empresas, o número de empregados e a estrutura de gestão, com a percepção de que os investimentos em P&D são necessários para a continuidade dos negócios. Identificou-se que as empresas com maior número de empregados (acima de mil) possuem maior interesse nos investimentos em P&D para a continuidade dos negócios. Empresas com tempo de atividade superior a 50 anos estão mais interessadas nos investimentos em P&D como estratégia de competitividade. A pandemia Covid-19 não interferiu nos investimentos em P&D na maioria das empresas da amostra. De forma geral, os resultados evidenciam que os fatores contingenciais relacionados à estrutura das organizações se relacionam com os investimentos em P&D, tanto nas empresas familiares como nas não-familiares. Contribuições do Estudo: Os achados sugerem que as empresas familiares (de maior porte e com maior número de funcionários) tendem a investir em P&D, tanto quanto as empresas não-familiares, visando se manterem competitivas. Tais resultados contribuem com reflexões e possibilidades de novos estudos acerca das especificidades das empresas familiares.
