Nivel de internacionalización de las mypes y su relación con la actividad exportadora en el Perú, en el 2019

Abstract

The objective of this research is to study how the level of internationalization of micro and small enterprises in Peru is related to export activity during 2019. Three types of techniques have been used in the research: descriptive or observational, correlational, and logistic regression. The descriptive or observational technique has been interpreted through conceptual models, describing the characteristics of exporting entrepreneurs. The correlational technique has measured the degree of relationship (magnitude) between qualitative independent variables and dependent variables. Lastly, a logistic regression analysis has been conducted to examine how SMEs (independent variable) are significantly related to export activity in Peru in 2019 (dependent variable), including both qualitative and quantitative independent variables. The research has concluded that the internal characteristics, environment, sector, entrepreneur, and tangible and intangible resources of SMEs are related to export activity. On the other hand, it has been found that the level of innovation in the regional environment does not have significant influence on explaining company exports, according to the results obtained from the logistic model.
