Resumen
The goal of this article is to analyze company satisfaction with intangible assets that have to do with collaborative work in Research Development activities between corporations and centers of investigation, while focusing ourselves particularly on the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) case. Firstly, maintaining an approach focused mainly on the Intellectual Capital, this investigation extensively and thoroughly addresses corporate satisfaction with the CSIC. Secondly, by means of multiple logistic regression analysis, a study was conducted utilizing characteristics of both corporations and institutes of the CSIC that yielded a greater influence in the overall corporate satisfaction. The extensive analysis reveals that corporations prove to be satisfied with the three dimensions of Intellectual Capital, as a reference of worth and quality of its intangibles. Some aspects, however, can be greatly improved upon. The regression analysis indicates that the institutes’ source of revenue and companies’ chief financing market are characteristics that influence the companies’ satisfaction when participating in Research Development activities.
