    : Los objetivos de este trabajo son proponer un modelo contingente que relaciona variables de contexto, organizacionales y de resultado, e identificar las barreras que los Centros Tecnológicos encuentran para trabajar con empresas y las buenas prácticas llevan a cabo para desarrollar ventajas competitivas y adaptarse en entornos turbulentos. Esta investigación se baso en un estudio de catorce Centros tecnológicos de la Comunidad Valenciana y trece Centros Tecnológicos del País Vasco. El estudio propone algunos factores a mejorar para que los Centros Tecnológicos afronten adecuadamente los cambios en su entorno y sean más competitivos

    The objectives of this paper are to propose a contingent model linking context, organizational and performance variables, and to identify barriers that Research and Technology Organisations have to overcome to work with companies. Furthermore, there is discussion of the best practices that Research and Technology Organisations carry out in order to develop competitive advantages and adjust to turbulent environments. This research was based on a field study of 14 Research and Technology Organisations in the Valencian Community and 13 Research and Technology Organisations in the Basque Country. The study identifies certain factors which could improve their performance to address properly changes in their environment and become more competitive.
