Promotion of Corporate Entrepreneurship

(2012) Córdoba. Argentina

The objective of the consultancy was to elaborate the baseline and indicators of the Argentinean part of the project “Promotion of Corporate Entrepreneurship”. The project is implemented in Argentina by the Córdoba Technology Linking Unit (UVITEC), in Chile by the Sociedad de Fomento Fabril (SOFOFA) and in Uruguay by the Unión de Exportadores del Uruguay (UEU); and is partially financed by the Multilateral Investment Fund of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB/MIF).
This project was formulated to contribute to innovation and business growth through a model of corporate incubators in Argentina, Chile and Uruguay; with the objective of developing dynamic ventures from within the companies and/or promoting ventures from their business environment. This involves strong collaboration between the three participating countries to share lessons learned and capture best practices for the subsequent replication of CE models in other countries.
During the consultancy a methodology was designed to measure the entrepreneurship promotion environment within large firms, using 8 specially defined variables. In addition, the indicators of the Logical Framework were reviewed, a computer system for monitoring and evaluation was developed that, among other things, graphically reflects the entrepreneurial environment, and a Manual for information collection was prepared.
