Item type:Publication, Creating shared value and social innovation: Cases of success from South American entrepreneurial ventures(IGI Global, 2020-12-04)This multiple case study of nine entrepreneurial ventures with social emphasis operating in Colombia, Peru, and Chile identifies vital elements that make these firms impactful in three dimensions: economic, environmental, and social. The results found that the founder's proximity to the social/ecological problem is a trigger to start up a business. The "purpose" is a motivational factor to both start up a business and keep the business during hard times, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. The purpose is the fuel, but it does not guarantee the success of the company. The value proposition is the critical factor for success. These companies are continually re-inventing and changing their value proposition while keeping the purpose of the organization as a keystone. The authors shed light on a model for social entrepreneur-ship in South America. - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Design and business methodologies to define the value proposition, promote innovation and successful entrepreneurship(International Journal on Engineering Science and Technology, 2024-09-30)In developing countries with a broad entrepreneurial spirit; some ventures are not successful because good business ideas that solve specific needs and in a sustainable manner are not chosen. This situation is because there is a lack of knowledge on how to apply design and business methodologies to define one of the most important aspects of the business: The value proposition. Promoting and developing tools that merge and synthesize existing methodologies with a practical approach to reduce the difficulties that entrepreneurs go through when formulating an innovative idea is fundamental and urgent, especially in emerging countries. Due to the importance of understanding the needs of the user and their context, design methodologies are taken as the basis for development. The result is used by the largest number of entrepreneurs, through a free Nooc, a short online course, which explains how to apply the methodological tools developed, massifying access to knowledge - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, Subnational Research and the Challenges of Scope Conditions(European Organization for Nuclear Research, 2025-12-30)How do concepts and theories “travel” in political science? At least since Sartori's (1970) famous metaphor, the capacity to travel, or the possibility for concepts and theories to be generalized, is directly related to the notion of scope conditions. In a more general sense, scope conditions mark precisely the set of conditions under which we assume that the conceptual or theoretical propositions apply, and by implication, where due to contextual differences (e.g., temporal, spatial, institutional) these propositions lose their validity (Goertz and Mahoney 2009, 2012; Gauquelin 2021, 254). A corollary of this is that most of our theories are context-sensitive (i.e., not universally valid) (Goertz and Mahoney 2012, 206).1
