This Ph. D. research work has demonstrated that is possible to apply the agency theory to relations among participants of cooperations between universities and companies for technological development of products and/or processes. The study was based on the premise that if there was a separation between capital property and control in cooperative research works between universities and companies it could occur interest conflicts among participants; therefore it would be possible to improve these processes by applying the concepts developed by the agency theory. Hence, it was accomplished a documental research, based on primary data gathered from established contracts between university–company technological cooperations. The analysis of these data allowed to identify contractual clauses that demonstrated the belonging variables existence to the agency theory, i.e., monitor and control techniques, divergent interests existence, no-pecuniary results controls and asymmetric information sources, showing theory characteristics that could be observed in technological cooperation processes, giving them a relevant contribution.
