M.  aThe innovation network in animal reproductionbEMBRAPA´s experience in organizing a research project on reproductive biotechnology.h[electronic resource]  c2011  aThe establishment of the network allowed the organization of Embrapa's different ongoing research actions in animal reproduction in a large and multidisciplinary project. As consequences, there was a larger interaction among the different research groups of the company and external partners. The proposal of collaborative research improved the scientific production of the group and also the development of products, processes, and technical information to the private sector. The technology transference and capacity building activities were strategically reorganized in line with the scope of the Network Project. A last consequence of the network was the possibility of applying for consortium research funding opportunities. The group also expects to improve scientific collaboration and to increase the relevance of R&D projects in animal reproduction, to improve the interplay with the government agencies in charge of the establishment of laws and rules for reproductive biotechnology used in livestock, and to improve their capacity of identifying and measuring the impact of the new technologies in the different livestock production systems.  aMelhoramento genético animal  aNutrição  aProdução Animal  aEmbryo technologies1 aPELLEGRIN, A.
