Comparative analysis of the behavior of the micro-businesses of the departments of the Colombian Caribbean region

Abstract

This research was guided by the question: Is there association or independence in the different variables of the micro-businesses in the departments of the Caribbean region? Therefore, the purpose was to review the association or independence that occurs in these businesses located in the Colombian Caribbean. The article worked with a positivist episteme, from a quantitative approach and a deductive paradigm, using hypothesis testing to corroborate or refute the assertions regarding the relationship of micro-businesses in this region. These businesses were found to have similar behaviors or their trends are identical, regardless of which of the eight departments the startup takes place in. Thus, there is an association in the variables analyzed in the research. The results indicate that there is cohesion in the region, originated by the behavior of the variables that are immersed within the entrepreneurship in the different departments located in the Caribbean region.
