Institute for Latin American Business - Programs and Activities
Latin American STEP Project
The STEP Project is more than a research study -- it is a leading edge research and learning partnership that enables business families and academics to learn from one another. The driving force behind the STEP Project is to generate knowledge and solutions that have immediate impact and personal application to business families.
The Latin American STEP Project enlisted families for the first Latin American Summit hosted by INCAE in Costa Rica. Through structured and facilitated dialogue between academics and families, the Summit created rich learning opportunities that stretched traditional thinking. more>>>

Topics covered in the program included: Mapping the Entrepreneurship Territory, New Venture Creation, Entrepreneurial Finance, Family Enterprising, Corporate Entrepreneurship, Entrepreneurship Curriculum Design, The Business Planning Process and The Entrepreneurial Mind in Action.
