Resumo

Introdução: O processo de inovação e a sua aplicação em contextos vários têm, gradualmente, ganho terreno na comunidade académica como área de interesse e investigação. Do mesmo modo, nas últimas décadas, também o turismo tem merecido especial destaque nos trabalhos desenvolvidos pelos investigadores, com contributos em várias perspetivas (e.g. económico, social, cultural e ambiental).

Objetivo: O objetivo do presente estudo é explorar e contribuir para a reflexão da literatura em contextos específicos de turismo e, em que medida, o processo de inovação se assume como fator chave para o seu desenvolvimento e competitividade (e.g. gestão em contextos de ecoturismo).

Métodos: Trata-se de um documento conceptual que reúne os principais componentes do processo de inovação e suas implicações em contextos de turismo de interesse especial (e.g. ecoturismo).

Resultados: O presente trabalho apresenta alguns insights na ótica da inovação e empreendedorismo em contextos específicos de turismo. O processo de criação associado à natureza e sistemas de reserva sustentável, mecanismos ou partilha de informações são exemplos de vantagem competitiva para os destinos e produtos turísticos.

Conclusões: O empreendedorismo gerador e fatores inovadores que podem desencadear atividade empresarial. O estudo considera algumas das implicações para a gestão e a literatura. Implicações para pesquisas futuras também são apresentadas.
