Estado del arte de modelos de negocio relacionados con la asociatividad y la competitividad en organizaciones latinoamericanas

Abstract

Associativity was thought of as the possibility of maintaining the sustainable growth of small and medium-sized enterprises that face the globalization challenges posed by current markets; In the 1990s, the first programs were developed in Colombia to promote competitive development based on the association. Since 2012, cluster-type initiatives have been developed in the country which are defined as a concentration of companies and institutions interconnected in the economic activity that they develop, geographically close to each other. Associativity begins to gain ground in the socio-economic context of the country, as a measure that promotes well-being and economic development through the productive growth of SMEs; But it is still necessary to consolidate efforts at public and private level to solidify its benefits and promote its effectiveness in local actors.
