The ability and willingness to develop, organize and manage a business along with handling its risks in order to obtain a benefit is the entrepreneurialism that characterizes the population of Hidalgo. The bestexample of entrepreneurship is the start of new businesses in the state of Hidalgo, which are the initiatives of people who are convinced that business development at any level is a path to success. The study developed below is the result of a research project carried out through the National Research Network of MiPYMES (Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises) to answer the following questions: What are the characteristics and motivations of entrepreneurs in the state of Hidalgo, and what are the conditions they face to consolidate themselves as successful entrepreneurs? The most relevant results indicate that the main economic activities that have been developed in the state are the retail trade and hospitality services. The companies have an average of 3 years since their start of operations. Nearly 50% are run by female entrepreneurs whose main motivation is to increase income and have greater dependence. The main obstacles they face are government bureaucracy and lack of financing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
