capacidades tecnológicas, empresas sociales tecnológicas, impacto social, tecnología avanzadaResumen
Las empresas sociales buscan solucionar problemas significativos de la humanidad mediante la maximización del impacto social de sus productos o servicios. La tecnología y la innovación representan oportunidades clave para su desarrollo. Esta investigación tuvo como objetivo analizar las capacidades tecnológicas de las empresas sociales emergentes con miras a potenciar su impacto social. Utilizando un enfoque cualitativo, se realizó una revisión sistemática de la literatura en las bases de datos de Redalyc, Web of Science y ScienceDirect con descriptores temáticos como “empresas sociales y tecnología” y “social tech ventures”. De las investigaciones revisadas, 56 fueron seleccionadas para un análisis detallado. Los resultados indican que las empresas emergentes con base tecnológica se orientan hacia el impacto social, siendo esencial la construcción de capacidades tecnológicas. Factores como la educación de los fundadores y el acceso a financiamiento juegan un papel crucial. Estos hallazgos sientan las bases para futuros estudios que contribuyan al desarrollo económico y social de América Latina.
