This article is focused on analyzing the roles played by the business sphere and entrepreneurship in local development processes. The first of the article’s three sections proposes the reasons for which the economic sphere is considered to be one of the main focuses of local development, with emphasis on the role of micro and small-sized businesses as well as local productive systems in socio-territorial relationships that promote a territory’s development. In the second section, the author defines entrepreneurship, and explains why promoting entrepreneurship is a task that is correlated with local development practice. The third section analyzes the case of Jalisco’s furniture industry, as an example in which entrepreneurship is promoted, with emphasis on increasing competitiveness and the survival of a traditional economic sector.
