Initially established with the idea of talking about the behaviors in the global economic and social in Latin America,Africa and India. Now I think that I have to  specialize more it  and approach to the entrepreneurs and international cooperation in these continents.

Good Morning friends,

With my first coffee of the morning was reflecting on some aspects the incorporation of women into the world of business.

The women of the world are very active in the business world. According to a study by the Center for Women’s Leadership Babson College in the United States,women account for 93% of world GDP.

The differents areas of the world shows that most entrepreneurial area is Latin America and the Caribbean,as well as the concept of  business increasingly linked to work rather than having to have training or not.

Entrepreneurial activitiy was higher in middle-income countries,where women contribute significantly to economic growth.

In a global women entrepreneurs in rich countries are more likely to get your business afloat than those who lived in countries with fewer resources.

The entrepreneurs women of middle- low income countries  have fewer opportunities than men that their business is maintained over time.

“Ways to ensure that women can develop their entrepreneurial project successfully“

Good Morning friends,

With my first coffee of the morning today I wanted to refer to business incubators in Latin America.

Business incubators are a global phenomenon that has spread to virtually the entire Latin American region. In  particulary the Indo-Dev Incubator. World Bank initiative, launched in 2003, has contributed its recent development, strengthening some initiatives in various countries.

This is very important considering the distribution of tasks that these institutions play as well as public policies that promote them in various countries in the region.

 In recent years there have been further consolidated partnerships and networks of incubators in some countries in the region, broadening the understanding of this phenomenon.

Brazil, Chile, Argentina and Mexico are the countries most advanced in the incubation of the region.

• Brazil has 339 incubators in 23 states, hosting 3327companies
• Chile has 19 incubators in 9 regions, 2 hosting centers and 414 venture firms.
• Argentina has 26 incubators mainly in the capital and urban areas, hosting 237 companies.
• Mexico has 192 incubators, many of which have been newly established, covering 32 states.

Nice day,
