The sustainable development of a region depends not only on its economic
growth, but principally on its capacity for social and political organization,
which is related to the availability of different forms of intangible capitals in the
region. In fact, the promotion of regional development should be essentially based
on the formulation and implementation of politics, programs and projects designed
and implemented from the action of local societies. In this process, the agencies and
institutions of the federal and state governments play the role of partners. One way
of illustrating how the intangible capitals can contribute to regional development
is by means of the Local Productive Arrangements (APLs) in Brazil, particularly
through the balance between supply and demand of innovation services. In this
regard, this paper aims at analysing the importance of intangible capitals for the
process of regional development, being the APLs used here as a very illustrative
example.
