Abstract

What is it that you really characterizes an entrepreneur: its innate characteristics, its essence, the context in which develops, their experiences, the chance of fate?. Of course it could extend this list of possibilities; in fact, the theoretical treatment on the subject is abundant, and as will be seen in the review of the literature, the evidence shows the existence of these elements in the entrepreneur. However, there is not an analysis that allows to observe how this accumulation of facts are reflected in the entrepreneur and therefore arises the academic concern if there is an individual who collects all these characteristics to a greater or lesser extent, and in addition, its activity has successful. Precisely this is the problem that the present paper tries to solve in the application of a case study. The context in which these events take place is worldwide, however it has been considered convenient to choose a local case, particularly because this case would allow closer and more reliable access to information.Therefore is required to find a model case in the country, and also in the first intuition of the researchers, with many of the characteristics that they want to evidence through the research method. The main objective of this paper is to analyze through a case study if this cluster of characteristics and their theoretical supports coexist in an individual and if that conjunction can to explain the basis of its success. This paper add knowledge in the sense of explaining the characteristics, which in turn shape the profile of an entrepreneur.
