Abstract: This study aimed to analyze the dynamics of scientific collaboration in Intellectual Property (IP) and Technology Transfer (TT) within the context of stricto sensu graduate programs in Brazil, taking as reference the papers submitted to the XIV ProspeCT&I – VIII International Congress of PROFNIT (2024). The research adopted a bibliometric approach, using the VOSviewer software (version 1.6.20) to examine co-authorship networks, interinstitutional collaborations, the relative frequency of core terms in the extended abstracts, and the co-occurrence of keywords. The results revealed variations in the volume of publications between 2020 and 2024, changes in thematic focuses over the period, and a predominance of terms related to innovation, patents, technology, and intellectual property. The co-authorship analyses identified clusters of researchers and central institutional hubs, highlighting the leading role of public universities with graduate programs in the field. Furthermore, the adoption of hybrid and online formats expanded the reach of the events and enhanced the integration among researchers from different regions, fostering knowledge dissemination and the articulation between academia, the productive sector, and public policies—key aspects for strengthening national capacities in technological innovation and scientific development.
