Technological waste grows exponentially in the order of millions of tons; Therefore, technological waste companies develop collection and recycling activities, contributing to sanitation and contributing to the sustainability of communities. These companies are inserted in socioeconomic development, hence their importance in the execution of research and development (R&D) activities. The objective of this article is to identify R&D activities within the framework of the profile of technological waste companies in Panama. The Grid Analysis of Coincidences allowed the ten participating companies to be modeled, a technique to detect which events (objects, attributes or characteristics) are most frequent in a set of scenarios and with which others they tend to occur together. The NetCoin software package in R helped create interactive graphs of coincidences, occurrences, and correlations. It was found that R&D activities are oriented towards the training of its personnel and exchange of personnel with other entities, as well as developing activities with companies of the same nature. Although R&D activities are limited in technology waste companies, they can still contribute significantly to socio-economic development through their efforts in technology waste management.
