Abstract

The purpose of the research was to analyze innovation and entrepreneurship in social agents in a local environment, whose resulting plot sustains the generation and transfer of innovation and the entrepreneurial entrepreneurial process, contributing to social economic development. To this end, starting from eclecticism and critical rationalism, on the basis of analytical, explanatory and interpretative approaches and modern and postmodern epistemological postures, research was carried out in three stages: Descriptive-explanatory; explanatory-prescriptive and prospective. The results led to reveal the relationship between innovation and entrepreneurship, towards the configuration of enabling conditions for development at the local level.
