Actually, in the information society where we are situated, there are many analyses and approaches that emphasize the relationship between the installation of the information and communications technologies with the economic growth of the territories. The technological change and the capacity to educate and to investigate in a country, has conformed basically, in the last times, what is known as intangible capitals or components of the intellectual capital, associated to the productivity and, in addition, with the growth of a country or region through variations in the production function. In this work, it is emphasized in the treatment of this relationship starting from the indicator of regional technological efficiency to determine if this factor bears a better answer before actual scenario of economic deceleration. So, we project and analyze the relationships of this indicator with the regional labour market, fixing the strong impacts taken place in employment destruction in those regions and sectors with lower scores in generator of technological intellectual capital.
