Abstract (English):	The article addresses the possibility of establishing an endogenous core in Argentina based on biotechnology, within the context of a dual techno-economic paradigm that includes both information and communication technologies (ICT) and biotechnology. It is argued that Argentina possesses relevant techno-productive capabilities in biotechnology, which, if enhanced through coordinated policies, could serve as a pivot for structural transformation in the country. Additionally, the limitations and opportunities that Argentina faces on its path to industrialization are discussed, highlighting the importance of effective articulation between the scientific system and the productive sector for the development of a solid endogenous core.

Abstract (Spanish):	En este artículo se afirma que la existencia de un paradigma tecnoeconómico de tipo dual mundial abre un espacio de posibilidades para la constitución de un núcleo endógeno de base biotecnológica en la Argentina. En este sentido, se sostiene, en primer lugar, que en el campo de la biotecnología se definen un conjunto de innovaciones fundamentales en industrias que tienen un carácter estratégico por su alto impacto sobre la salud y la alimentación de la población mundial; en segundo lugar, que la Argentina tiene en esas industrias capacidades tecnoproductivas de cierta relevancia, y que, potenciadas mediante una serie de intervenciones coordinadas de política tecnológica e industrial, estas actividades podrían desempeñar una función de “pivote” de la especialización sectorial como parte de un proyecto de trasformación estructural.
