Abstract

A key element of innovation is the entrepreneur. The entrepreneur makes innovations to develop new products and or services, so he is the engine of technological change according to Schumpeter. However, study of the impact of activities developed by such agents is relatively recent. Early studies focused on personal characteristics of the entrepreneur. However, the evidence and findings obtained indicate that what really differentiates the enterprising entrepreneur is a process characterized by constant innovation. For this reason, recent work, considers the entrepreneurial process as a set of functions, activities and actions associated with the perception of opportunity and the creation of the organization to exploit it. The aim of this work is to identify the main features that entrepreneurs have in the southern state of Yucatan, so they can develop innovative products or services. Among the obtained results are the main sources of inspiration that contributed to generate the business, factors that determined their entrepreneurial spirit and the main attributes and habits he has.
