The multinationals software companies are economic agents with the potential of affecting drastically the dynamics of development of the domestic industry in this sector. These effects depend on the type of relationship (competition or cooperation) between the companies. On the relationship of competition, the literature reveals progress in their systemic understanding. However, the analysis of collaborative behavior among national and multinational software companies and their effects on the development of the latter has advanced little, being notable in the literature the absence of simulation models to analyze the phenomenon. The purpose of this work is to make a contribution in this way, using the system dynamics as a methodological approach. The results obtained demonstrate the conditions favorable and unfavorable to the establishment of a relationship of collaboration with multinational, leading to a better understanding of the phenomenon under study and facilitating the formulation and implementation of most successful growth strategies of the industry Key words: multinationals software companies, software industry, dynamics system, Colombia, Industrial and organizational psychology, technology innovation. Las multinacionales de software son agentes economicos con el potencial de afectar drasticamente la dinamica de desarrollo de la industria domestica en este sector. Tales efectos dependen del tipo de relacion (de competencia o colaboracion) establecida entre las empresas. Respecto a la relacion de competencia, la literatura revela avances en su comprension sistemica. Sin embargo, el analisis del comportamiento colaborativo entre empresas multinacionales y nacionales de software y sus efectos sobre el desarrollo de estas ultimas ha avanzado poco, siendo notable en la literatura la ausencia de modelos de simulacion para analizar el fenomeno. El proposito de este trabajo es hacer una contribucion en esta direccion, utilizando la Dinamica de Sistemas como aproximacion metodologica. Los resultados obtenidos ponen en evidencia las condiciones favorables y desfavorables para el establecimiento de una relacion de colaboracion con multinacionales, conduciendo a una mejor comprension del fenomeno bajo estudio y propiciando la formulacion e implantacion de estrategias mas exitosas de crecimiento de la industria.
