Abstract—The research proposes the analysis of technology
management and innovation model, from the experience of
twenty Colombian researchers, from a Research, Development
and Innovation Centre related to aerospace and defence issues,
such as, objective of RDI in defence, the ideation process, the
process of developing science, technology and innovation (STI)
projects, the organizational structure for RDI, the availability of
public and private resources, the project financing process, the
corporate willingness to adopt technologies, the support process
for the technologies developed and the transfer of results were
reviewed. The research was developed under the qualitative
method, carrying out a descriptive and non-experimental
analysis under an empirical phenomenological design, using
interviews as a research instrument. As a result, it was possible
to identify parameters to enhance and improve RDI capabilities
in aerospace defence projects and generate a spillover effect on
other actors, identifying relevant aspects to strengthen.
