Abstract
ABSTRACT Drawing on the corporate entrepreneurship (CE) theory, this article examines the rise of the Spanish engineering consulting firm Técnica y Proyectos SA (TYPSA), from its foundation, in 1966, as a project office within a larger national-based construction fgroup, until its consolidation as a family multinational in the 2000s. Our research shows how contextual and intra-organizational changes affect the CE drivers identified by entrepreneurship theory, and highlights resilience as a new element reinforcing entrepreneurial orientation over time. The study also enriches the Chandlerian-biased historical debate by focusing on project-based professional services and assessing the role of decentralization and managerial leadership in corporate entrepreneurship.
摘要基于企业创业理论，本文考察了西班牙工程咨询公司Técnica y Proyectos SA（TYPSA）从1966年成立到2000年代合并为家族跨国公司的崛起过程。我们的研究表明，背景和组织内的变化如何影响创业理论确定的CE驱动因素，并强调随着时间的推移，韧性是加强创业导向的一个新因素。该研究还通过关注基于项目的专业服务和评估权力下放和管理领导力在企业创业中的作用，丰富了钱德勒式的历史辩论。
