- Abstract
During recent decades, there has been growth in the number of institutions whose purpose is to promote a culture of entrepreneurship. Previous studies have shown the relationship between the promotion of entrepreneurship and economic growth. However, the political, cultural and social impacts of this activity are unknown. The aim of this research is to ascertain whether such promotion affects economic, human and social capital and the solidarity and happiness of persons. A survey to a sample of individuals who were trained in the Medellin Entrepreneurship Park (Colombia) was applied. The results show that the promotion of entrepreneurship created politically active citizens, increased their human capital and slightly influenced on their economic and social capital. However, it did not create people who were either more collaborative or happier.
