The scientific-technological policy of the National Company Yacimientos Petrolíferos Fiscales (YPF) is analyzed from its partial renationalization in 2012, taking the case of its technological arm, YPF-Tecnología (Y-TEC). Its format, conception and activities during the last government of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner (CFK) (2013-2015) is discussed, under a mixed paradigm of public-private and professionalized management. Considering the limitations of this design, consistent with the development strategy of that government, the new role to be fulfilled by Y-TEC under the government of Mauricio Macri (2016-2017) is then analyzed. The Y-TEC Open Innovation paradigm proposed by the new administration is consistent with the contemporary, globalized and “flexible” capitalism and reveals how this new national government took advantage of the original Y-TEC format. The new policy maintains the management, but redefines the original projects, to capitalize the structure under other objectives and a new model.
