Resumen

Research on entrepreneurship has been fundamentally based on the experience of developed countries, mainly the United States and Europe (Álvarez et al., 2014) both within specific countries (Palmer et al., 2019; Guerrero et al., 2016) and across them (Laskovaia et al., 2017; Criaco et al., 2017; Sieger et al., 2016; Estrin et al., 2013). At the same time, there is little knowledge about the experience of Latin American and Caribbean (LAC) (Amorós et al., 2019; Bartesaghi et al., 2017; López and Alvarez, 2018; Martins et al., 2018; Romaní and Atienza, 2016). Even though LAC is a single region, made up of 43 countries, each has its cultural characteristics and endowment of natural resources that make them different. Thus, entrepreneurship, its determinants or its characteristics could vary from country to country within this region. Knowing these particularities in each country and region will give more information to better face entrepreneurship. It will also contribute to the design of public policies ad hoc to the reality of each country.
