National Technical Table of Entrepreneurship

The National Technical Board of Entrepreneurship was implemented as an effort of the civil society, the private sector, the government, and international organizations to create a policy of entrepreneurship in the country. The members of this technical table drew five guidelines and ten priorities, which would define this public policy during a period of fifteen years (2015-2030). In order to establish the guidelines for this policy, a Central American reference framework was used (the SICA EMPRENDE strategy). In addition, an institutional mapping was carried out, the different stages of the entrepreneurship process were determined, and the different national issues that could affect negatively the policy were mapped.

Institutional design

?

Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?

Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?

Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?

Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?

Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?

Co-governance: is there involvement of the government in the process or not?
