ABSTRACT

The Cuban technological production recorded in patents documents processed in the United States Office from 1997 to 2007 is analyzed and described in this paper. Authors studied the woman participation and performance in national scientific and technical development with greatest international impact and visibility in the international field. Thus, we used a group of indicators allowing to show the patent production behaviour, as well as to obtain the necessary data to know the women role in this activity. The sectors with the greatest technologies production and marketing rates in Cuba were determined, where women have an active participation; as well as the centre and investigation institute, and the inventors with a greater patent production in the study period. The Cuban woman has a strong presence in introduction of national technologies in the international market in the past years.
