Popis: With the changes experienced in food production, agribusiness needs to serve increasingly exigenous markets that seek to understand how, when and where they are producedfrom their food. Adding this with the great need to increase the volume of food due to aggregate demand from factors such as population growth, urban expansion and the reduction of agricultural areas, makes food producers more productive and competitive in the domestic and foreign markets. An important way out of this is investment in innovation, whether by public or private funds, which focus on the development of agribusiness or agroindustry, such as product differentiation. In order to understand a country focused on the foreign market and on delivering greater added value to its customers (more demanding), this study focused on the"Business Incubator of the Universidad de La Frontera" - INCUBATEC UFRO. For this, an exploratory research was conducted, based on secondary and qualitative data that were previously published in FINOVAGRO-2020 in order to identify what are the factors that condition the success in the production of food Chilean companies. It was found that Chile is a major exporter, and therefore there is a large input of public investments that generate innovations to meet the requirements of international markets, aiming at the internationalization of their products, for through the differentiation of these. There is also a technological policy, used as a principal strategy, innovation programs focused on products with added value, important critical mass formation, skilled labor to operate in some production chains (as in the case of salmon) and the development of new products that are export targets, such as those mentioned above. It is notepoint that the results found by the authors are part of the author's master's project "Innovation Environments for the Generation of Startups of Agri-Food System: Case Study In the Ibero-American Sphere", which at the present date has not yet been published.
