Abstract

En este estudio se identifica un conjunto de características asociadas al hecho de que un migrante colombiano retornado se convierta en un emprendedor. El análisis se realizó con los datos recogidos en la encuesta Global Entrepreneurship Monitor (GEM) cuyo formulario fue modificado en el año 2012 (solo por ese año) con un conjunto de preguntas sobre emprendimiento a personas que habían retornado al país después de vivir fuera cierto tiempo. Se realizó la comparación entre las probabilidades de emprendimiento en dos regiones del país, Bogotá la capital, área de mayor desarrollo económico y financiero (n=204) y los departamentos de la Costa Caribe Colombiana, área de menor desarrollo industrial y mayor fortaleza turística (n=203). Los resultados fueron obtenidos utilizando métodos propios del paradigma Bayesiano de la Estadística. Se consideraron nueve distribuciones previas informativas construidas a partir de los datos observados (Empirical Bayes Methods) y se utilizó el factor de Bayes como criterio para seleccionar el modelo con mejor ajuste a los datos. De acuerdo con los resultados, los factores que afectan la probabilidad de que un migrante retornado sea emprendedor difieren entre regiones y están relacionados con la autoconfianza del individuo y su capacidad de prepararse para su inclusión en el sector productivo del país.
