The objective of this study is to analyze differences and complementarity between entrepreneurial orientation as intention and corporate entrepreneurship, phenomena that are treated indifferently by different authors. A survey of 137 manufacturing SMEs was carried out, estimating multivariate model and structural equations, in order to analysis the relationship between the two phenomena, little quantitatively contrasted in previous studies. Management capabilities drive the complementarity between the two constructs. Unlike the works that study a single capacity as a determinant, four are analyzed, among them that of financing, little explored and another that was not even found in previous studies, the ability to evaluate and manage projects, but with high impact on the business renewal, representing novelty. The results confirm the existence of a positive relationship between the two constructs studied and an equal entrepreneurial orientation with the analyzed management capabilities. Limitations include the poor organizational structure of SMEs and leaving out other capabilities such as organizational culture, leadership styles, management innovation and other variables, which in interaction can stimulate innovation and competitiveness of SMEs.
