| Summary: | This study aimed to determine the internal factors (size, budget innovation, overseas sales, increase export and e-commerce) and external factors (economic sector) that determine the export propensity of Social Economy companies. The export propensity was sized using the inductive method and applying various statistical analyzes (inferences and cluster analysis) to a sample of cooperatives and labour societies in a territorial limit, Andalusia, and two specific points in time, 2002 and 2013. As a result, two segments of companies were identified that once they were characterized, provide us export models. The results proved disparity in two Andalusian Social Economy clusters with external activity and increased export propensity, especially among the entities of the primary sector and with a greater business dimension. |
