This thesis explores the specificity of the Colombian entrepreneurship ecosystem. Building on and extending an entrepreneurial research methodology developed by the World Economic Forum, this thesis attempts to identify how the Colombian entrepreneurship ecosystem compares to others around the globe and to understand which factors are most relevant to its success. Combining insights from the literature, a quantitative analysis and multiple interviews, this study finds that the four factors with biggest potential for high positive impact on the performance outcomes of entrepreneurs in Colombia are: Funding & Finance, Accessible Markets, Regulatory Framework & Infrastructure and Cultural Support. Furthermore, the study shows that the high relevance of the latter two factors constitute a "Colombian specificity". This thesis contributes to the research by suggesting the most relevant factors to the long-term success of the Colombian entrepreneurship ecosystem. Keywords: entrepreneurship, ecosystem, success factors, Colombia.
