This study assesses the contribution of entrepreneurship to the economic growth of the Jicamarca community, located in Lurigancho-Chosica, Peru. Through a random sample of 120 entrepreneurs and a mixed methodology (surveys and interviews), the local entrepreneurial ecosystem was examined. The results indicate that entrepreneurship plays a key role in generating employment, income, and development opportunities in Jicamarca Lurigancho-Chosica, Peru. However, limiting factors were identified, highlighting the need to provide entrepreneurs with necessary support, such as training, financing, and access to networks to improve income levels. The study underscores the need to implement public policies that foster entrepreneurship and create a conducive environment for sustainable business development in the community. Based on the findings of this research, various strategies are proposed to strengthen the entrepreneurial ecosystem of Jicamarca Lurigancho-Chosica, Peru. These include the implementation of training and mentoring programs, improved access to financing, and the promotion of an entrepreneurial culture. By implementing these recommendations, Jicamarca, located in Lurigancho-Chosica, Peru, can consolidate its economic growth and improve the quality of life of its inhabitants.
