Caracterización del emprendimiento desde un enfoque universitario

Abstract

The main objective of this study was to assess the different definitions of “entrepreneurship” by conducting an inquiry according to current needs and expectations. The methodology was descriptive, and a detailed literature review analysis is performed. Twenty published sources were selected from Scopus, Scielo, and Web of Science. The results showed that the sooner entrepreneurship processes develop at universities, the greater the opportunities that students and future professionals have for generating successful entrepreneurships. The results also revealed entrepreneurial profiles and models of historical importance. It is concluded that what leads entrepreneurial projects to success or failure should not depend exclusively on entrepreneurs since the social and economic contexts of today create a bilateral responsibility with respect to the support that entrepreneurs should receive from other factors involved.
