• Resumen

  • Many authors have remarked the importance of the Technology Based Firm (TBF) in the last years, in part due to factors like innovation, production scale, technological change and their flexibility in the production processes to create aggregate value. Instead of these arguments there is not a definition of the technology based sectors, these sectors and their technological level are described in this article. It is also analyzed the returns of scale and the size composition of these technological sectors, where it is shown that the technology based SMEs are as efficient as the large enterprises.
