SUMMARY:

The locational decision is complex involving a set of factors and may have impact in the results of the organization. To understand this decision is even more complicated due to the fact that it covers many locational traditional factors as variables related to agglomeration. In view of this, in this research the option was to understand the choice of location in agglomerates being that the general objective was to investigate the factors concerning the locational decision of the organizations included in the local productive arrangement (LPA) of biotechnology of the Metropolitan Region of Belo Horizonte (MRBH). The theoretical contribution is about location decision and business agglomerations. It is a case study in the LPA of biotechnology of MRBH once that in the city there is the second biggest concentration of biotechnology companies of the country. This descriptive research has a predominantly subjective conception of reality adopting the interpretive primacy. In the quantitative part it was used as data collection technique a documentary research in the Annual Report of Social Information (Relação Anual de Informações Sociais – RAIS). And in the qualitative part it was performed semi-estructured interviews as well as a data research in the official websites, reports and news of the companies that are object of this study. The data exam occurred by descriptive statistics, by content analysis of Bardin (2007) and sociometric analysis. The results point that the LPA of biotechnology of MRBH is not yet consolidated, being that the relationships between the actors are incipient. It was found that the choice of location of the biotechnological companies has some specificities, making it necessary to have a holistic view that considers both the availability of space and infrastructure as well as issues of proximity, financing and personal characteristics. With the findings there is hope of helping the entrepreneurs in the rationality of the locational decision as well as to indicate to the government the factors of attraction of companies. Furthermore, with this study it was intended to contribute to the theories about decisive process and corporate agglomerations.
