Resumen

Este trabajo se plantea un doble objetivo. Por un lado, se pretende analizar la influencia que ejerce el capital social sobre las dos etapas del proceso de creación de empresas, el descubrimiento y la explotación de oportunidades, considerando el capital social como un conjunto de redes sociales y a las normas de reciprocidad, cooperación y confianza asociadas a ellas. En segundo lugar, este trabajo pretende analizar la existencia de diferencias en cuanto a género en el descubrimiento y la explotación de oportunidades de creación empresarial. Para alcanzar ambos objetivos, se utilizan datos procedentes de la encuesta realizada a una muestra de 28.888 individuos en España durante 2009, en el marco del proyecto GEM.
