The work, of a transversal / causal nature, takes as a theoretical reference the function to protect the PNGTi technology management model, native to Mexico and easily applicable to non-technological based SMEs, as is the case with mezcaleras. The research provides elements of judgment to promote the development of an emblematic industry in Mexico and demonstrates that if the sector's interest in technological practices linked to intellectual property is increased, the implementation of sustainable development actions that, in turn, would contribute to stabilize an industry at risk of unsustainability due to its accelerated expansion in the market. Given the lack of theoretical references in the literature, it is suggested to interpret the results and findings presented with caution.
