    Understanding triggering skills for entrepreneurship: The case of ESIC
    (technological forecasting and social change, 2021) ana rosado cubero; adolfo hernandez estrada; teresa freire rubio; Rosado Cubero, Ana Isabel; Hernández Estrada, Adolfo
    The aim of this paper is to present the methodology and results of a study on the role played by an institution in higher education, the ESIC Business & Marketing School, in teaching different master's degree programmes to examine whether they respond to the demands of potential entrepreneurs who are seeking to acquire the tools and develop the skills necessary to eventually become successful. The main conclusions were that the students with the intention of achieving a higher level of entrepreneurial skills were enroled in the Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA) programme without omitting other master's degree programmes also chosen by students with entrepreneurial concerns. It was also found that the variable with the highest impact on entrepreneurial motivation was family environment. Our data lead us to maintain that these students were not always going to start up a new business. The originality of this paper comes from our survey with 1,135 responses from the master's degree programmes taught in five cities in Spain with the inclusion of an analysis for LATAM students.

    Promotion of entrepreneurship through business incubators: Regional analysis in Spain
    (Technological forecasting and social change, 2023) ana rosado cubero; adolfo hernandez estrada; francisco jose blanco jimenez; maria teresa freire rubio; Rosado Cubero, Ana Isabel; Hernández Estrada, Adolfo
    This study focuses on business incubators in Spain, which helps compare regions within Spain. This study has four goals: to shape taxonomy of the Spanish business incubator system, to compare between regions, to identify the factors affecting incubators' success, and to analyse during the COVID pandemic. Of the 478 business incubators registered in Spain, 89 were selected as the sample for study. Business incubators provide office space, equipment and mentoring services, as well as financial, legal and administrative support for entrepreneurs and start-up companies. Non-parametric statistical techniques are used to compare between regions, considering each regional business incubator as an ecosystem. The study focuses on six Spanish regions: Madrid, Catalonia, Castile- Leon, Aragon, Basque Country and Galicia.
