Resumen

La presente investigación analiza la relación entre la percepción del ecosistema emprendedor y la intención emprendedora social en asociaciones de la provincia de Manabí, para la comprensión de las condiciones estructurales y culturales del entorno inciden en la disposición de los actores asociativos para emprender con enfoque social. Se aplicó un enfoque cuantitativo, con diseño no experimental y de corte transversal, de tipo correlacional. La población estuvo conformada por 111 socios pertenecientes a las asociaciones ASOTEX, AMUCOMT y ASOPROCOMSAL. Se empleó un cuestionario validado con 14 ítems tipo Likert, cuya confiabilidad alcanzó un Alfa de Cronbach superior a 0,80. Los datos fueron analizados mediante la prueba de Kolmogorov-Smirnov y el coeficiente de correlación de Spearman. Se determinó una correlación positiva baja y significativa (r = 0,273; p = 0,009) entre la percepción del ecosistema emprendedor y la intención de emprendimiento social. Los asociados manifestaron un entorno favorable con acceso a capacitaciones, asesorías y programas de apoyo, así como una alta predisposición a desarrollar iniciativas orientadas al bienestar colectivo.
