The present work forms part of the eularinet (European Union-Latin America Research and Innovation Network) project aimed at strengthening the bi-regional cooperation in Science and Technology. Its goal is to determine the production and the technological capacities of Latin American countries, especially focused in the cooperation between them and the European countries, through patent indicators. Prior studies have demonstrated that the dynamics of scientific cooperation between European and Latin American countries are strongly consolidated, though data from this study show that technological cooperation is very scarce. The results of initiatives in the field of analysis for strategic planning, as the project eularinet, provide a basis of essential knowledge so that European countries can optimise strategies of scientific and technological cooperation with Latin American countries.
