A Proposal for the Study of the Mexican National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Systems

Based on W. Edwards Deming's theory of profound knowledge to achieve economic development, the importance of a hypothetical relationship between a national entrepreneurship system and a national innovation system is presented in this article. In a sense, entrepreneurship is an activity that occurs in the space between technology push and market pull. To demonstrate the hypothesis regarding the existence of this relationship, a dynamic system simulation is proposed to validate it. A causal model is formulated for its construction and subsequent simulation. A research plan to build, validate and calibrate a causal model according to the literature guidelines is presented. Finally, this research plan is proposed to become a baseline methodology to analyze a national-innovation system in a systematic way.
