With a turnover level of less than 1,000 million guaraníes by 64%. As for their felt needs of the market in its Business Innovation component, we find that 76.32% have not participated in government support or incentives for innovation. 81.0% would be interested in participating in strengthening programs. While only 13.16% have an innovation area and only 10.53% have funds for innovation.
