description In light of the new opportunities offered by the global context, subnational governments strive for increased internationalization through policies that impact the competitiveness of sectors and companies in their region or city. For this purpose, they develop initiatives, either dispersed or articulated around a strategy, and create specialized agencies for their implementation. In this paper, we document and analyze the creation and initial steps of Córdoba Acelera, the agency created by the municipality of the city of Córdoba to implement its productive internationalization strategy. We place special focus on evaluating its institutional design, while also describing and analyzing its activities in the first year of its effective operation. Additionally, we present a comparative analysis with other subnational agencies in Colombia and Spain. We find that the institutional design of Córdoba Acelera is innovative for a municipal government, while also being suitable to the competitive strengths and internationalization potential of the city. Its activities are also complementary to the work of other public agencies in the city and the province of Córdoba. In its first year, Córdoba Acelera has shown notable effectiveness and leadership, although we also highlight some risks that could undermine the potential impact of the agency in the future.

Ante las nuevas oportunidades que ofrece el contexto mundial, los gobiernos subnacionales buscan una mayor internacionalización a través de políticas que impactan en la competitividad de los sectores y las empresas de su región o ciudad. Para ello, desarrollan iniciativas, dispersas o articuladas en torno a una estrategia, y recurren a agencias especializadas como responsables de su implementación. En este trabajo documentamos y analizamos la creación y primeros pasos de Córdoba Acelera, la agencia creada por el municipio de la ciudad de Córdoba para la implementación de su estrategia de internacionalización productiva. Ponemos especial foco en la evaluación de su diseño institucional, aunque también describimos y analizamos sus actividades en el primer año que lleva de funcionamiento efectivo. Además, presentamos un análisis comparado con otras agencias subnacionales de Colombia y España. Encontramos que el diseño institucional de Córdoba Acelera es innovador para un gobierno municipal, a la vez que es adecuado a las fortalezas competitivas y potencial de internacionalización de la ciudad. Sus actividades son también complementarias al trabajo de otras agencias públicas de la ciudad y de la provincia de Córdoba. En su primer año de vida, Córdoba Acelera ha mostrado una notoria efectividad y liderazgo, aunque destacamos también algunos riesgos que podrían socavar en el futuro el potencial impacto de la agencia. application/pdf https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/DT-IIEP/article/view/3099 spa Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política (IIEP UBA-CONICET) https://ojs.economicas.uba.ar/DT-IIEP/article/view/3099/3968 Derechos de autor 2024 Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política de Buenos Aires (UBA-CONICET) Documentos de trabajo del Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política; Núm. 93 (2024): Promoviendo la internacionalización productiva desde una agencia municipal: el caso de Córdoba Acelera; 1-56 Working Papers series at Instituto Interdisciplinario de Economía Política; No. 93 (2024): Promoting Productive Internationalization from a local agency: The Case of Córdoba Acelera; 1-56 2451-5728 agencia de desarrollo local desarrollo productivo internacionalización productiva colaboración público-privada competitividad Local Development Agency Productive Development Productive Internationalization Public-Private Collaboration Competitiveness Promoting Productive Internationalization from a local agency: The Case of Córdoba Acelera Promoviendo la internacionalización productiva desde una agencia municipal: el caso de Córdoba Acelera info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=dociiep&d=3099_oai
