| Abstract | This paper describes a study aiming at comparing entrepreneurs-owners of firms in incubators in Brazil and in Portugal. The comparasion between the two countries was due to a common past mirrored, especially the Portuguese influence in brazilian`s cultural, reflected in Hofstede`s cross cultural study (1980). The entrepreneurial orientation was higher in Brazil, especially in the dimensions risk-taking and competitive aggressiveness. The Brazilian entrepreneurs revealed a higher rejection of future uncertainties, higher propensity to take risks and to expose themselves to uncertainty. This study rise important questions about the drives of entrepreneurship, and a curiosity about this. It suggests future researchs to study the opportunity and necessity entrepreneurial in two countries. |
