          Abstract

          Resumen El objetivo de este trabajo consistió en caracterizar los factores que determinan la competitividad de las Mipymes dirigidas por mujeres. Se construyó un cuestionario que fue aplicado a 272 empresarias de la Ciudad de México. Los principales hallazgos son: las empresas dirigidas por mujeres son de tamaño micro, se concentran en servicios y comercio, no cuentan con personalidad jurídica, no utilizan herramientas tecnológicas, pero son capaces de identificar oportunidades de negocios y de impulsarlos con ahorros propios y de familiares, reinvirtiendo las utilidades. Más de la mitad consideran que, si bien sus ingresos son insuficientes, la empresa no está en riesgo.

          Abstract The objective of this paper was to characterize the factors that determine the competitiveness of micro-, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) led by women. A questionnaire was designed and applied to 272 businesswomen in Mexico City. The main findings were: companies run by women are micro-sized, they focus on services and trade, and they have no legal personality nor use any technological tools; however, they are able to identify business opportunities and boost their businesses with their own and their family’s savings, reinvesting the profits. More than half of them consider that, although their income is insufficient, their business is not at risk.
