Abstract
In the last decades, entrepreneurship has acquired great importance due to its relationship with growth and economic development of a country through the development of companies. The Entrepreneurship process involves the presence of lucrative opportunities and the presence of enterprising individuals. In this sense, the discovery of opportunities is a fundamental aspect in business activity thus becoming a key point in investigations, which have improved with data from the Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM).
The main objective of this study is to analyze the factors of human capital and social capital that are related to the discovery of opportunities for women and men from Latin America starting from the GEM database project for eight Latin American countries through an analysis of logistic regression. Through logistic regression analysis, the significance of most of the variables considered in this study statistically are verified. It also confirms that the factors used in other studies and geographical fields are equally significant in Latin American countries.
