Many authors have identified positive relationships between organizational culture and innovation. The cultural characteristics that support the generation of innovation constitute what is commonly known as innovation culture. Research interest in this phenomenon have increased in the last two decades.  However, it seems there is still a lot to be studied in the field. This work presents the results of a review of published empirical research in certain electronic data bases in the past ten years on the culture of innovation phenomenon within companies. Findings suggest there’s still a relatively small amount of research, which reveals great opportunities to grow and dig on the current stock of knowledge, especially from a qualitative research focus (as opposed to a quantitative one); and from an interpretative or naturalist paradigm, as opposed to a positivist or neopositivist one. This is probably the first exercise of its kind on the previously mentioned phenomenon.      La creciente necesidad de innovación en las empresas ha llevado a los interesados a investigar sus determinantes y características desde hace algunos años. Diversos autores han identificado relaciones positivas entre cultura organizacional e innovación. Aquellas características culturales que apoyan la generación de innovación constituyen lo que se conoce comúnmente como cultura de innovación. El interés por la investigación de este fenómeno ha incrementado, no obstante, aún queda mucho por indagar. El presente trabajo muestra los resultados de una revisión de lo publicado en los últimos diez años en ciertas bases de datos electrónicas acerca del fenómeno cultura de innovación en las empresas. Los resultados sugieren que ha sido relativamente escasa la investigación en el campo y revelan oportunidad para ampliar y profundizar los conocimientos que se tienen sobre las culturas de innovación, en especial desde enfoques metodológicos más cualitativos que cuantitativos y desde paradigmas de investigación más interpretativos o naturalistas que positivistas o neopositivistas. Este es probablemente el primer ejercicio de su tipo sobre dicho fenómeno ACACIA A.C. 2019-03-07 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Artículo revisado por pares application/pdf text/html https://cienciasadmvastyp.uat.edu.mx/index.php/ACACIA/article/view/172 Ciencias Administrativas.
