Technology and Growth Series : Chilean Salmon Exports

This Note is a part of a larger study of technological adaptation and catch-up in high-growth, nontraditional export sectors. Such study examined ten sectors in economies with a reasonably stable macro environment, its objective being to understand...

Such study examined ten sectors in economies with a reasonably stable macro environment, its objective being to understand whether, and how government policies focused on the adaptation of superior technologies of production in nascent sectors spurred scaling-up, and led to rapid and sustainable growth in a relatively short period of time. The note focuses on the Chilean salmon sector, which evolved from a quasi-artisan, family based industry, whose foundation for this nascent sector was laid with the successful inception of salmon into the Chilean environment, using imported genetic material and intermediate inputs. The government acted as a catalyst during this stage, starting the first commercial salmon farming operation in the country with the help of CORFO (Corporacion de Fomento), a public development agency of the Chilean Government, and Fundacion Chile, a private non governmetal organization (NGO). The latter resulted from a cooperative agreement between the Innovation and Technology Transfer (ITT) Institute and the Chilean Government created to facilitate innovation and technology transfer. 2012-08-13T14:26:30Z 2012-08-13T14:26:30Z 2005-10 http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/2005/10/6555770/technology-growth-series-chilean-salmon-exports http://hdl.handle.net/10986/11204 English PREM Notes; No.103 CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo/ World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Publications & Research :: Brief Publications & Research Latin America & Caribbean Chile
