Abstract
Entrepreneurship ecosystems boost the competitiveness of startups and these, in turn, contribute to socio-economic progress and well-being. Therefore, the interest in studying the components of the entrepreneurial ecosystem of Lima that affect the growth and development of startups. In February 2017, a sample of 137 startups linked to Innóvate Peru, answered a questionnaire. Subsequently, an exploratory factor analysis was performed –using the PCA method–, a cluster analysis, a unidirectional ANOVA and cross tables. Two components and three clusters were identified, characterized by the age and the productive sector of the startup. The findings suggest that the incidence of the components depends on the stage of the entrepreneurship process in which the startup is going through.
