description | This research seeks to identify the factors that influence the creation of Startups with high growth potential in a developing economy. A qualitative approach with an exploratory-descriptive scope was followed, conducting 25 semi-structured interviews with members of entrepreneurship units in the city of Medellín, Colombia. The results indicate that the internal factors that most influence the creation of Startups with growth potential are: the profile of the entrepreneur, his work team and knowledge of the market. External factors correspond to economic aspects and capacity of the entrepreneurship ecosystem, such as: financial leverage, risk capital, financing, loans and calls. It concludes with the need for venture capital financing, specialized advice, and effective collaboration between universities, companies and the State to promote the strengthening of startups and contribute to the economic development of the country. |

Esta investigación busca identificar los factores que influyen en la creación de Startups con alto potencial de crecimiento en una economía en desarrollo. Se siguió un enfoque cualitativo con alcance exploratorio-descriptivo, realizando 25 entrevistas semiestructuradas a miembros de unidades de emprendimiento de la ciudad de Medellín, Colombia. Los resultados indican que los factores internos que más influyen en la creación de Startups con potencial de crecimiento son: el perfil del emprendedor, su equipo de trabajo y el conocimiento del mercado. Los factores externos corresponden a aspectos económicos y capacidad del ecosistema de emprendimiento, como: apalancamiento financiero, capital de riesgo, financiación, préstamos y convocatorias. Se concluye con la necesidad de financiación en capital de riesgo, asesoramiento especializado, y colaboración efectiva entre universidades, empresas y el Estado para fomentar el fortalecimiento de las startups y contribuir al desarrollo económico del país.
