Abstract
Entrepreneurship is a trigger for growth and development in the global economy.

The objective of this research was to define an entrepreneurial model based on the best practices of the Business Incubator Center of the Accounting and Administration School at the Autonomous University of Chihuahua in Mexico. A survey of registered companies in incubation between May 2015 and July 2018 was conducted. The main results were divided into two stages, considering 101 and 318 companies, respectively. Correlations and regression analyses in this study indicate no differences in gender regarding entrepreneurial activity and business operations. A confirmed model for business incubation is outlined.
