description | The paper introduces the question of micro enterprises success in Argentina in the context of the 2007-2008 international financial crisis that overlaps with the lagged effects of the previous domestic downturn of 2001-2002. The work focuses on three aspects of the micro enterprises that have not been sufficiently studied in the literature on emerging economies: entrepreneurial profile of the firm-owner, performance and profile of the micro-entrepreneurs benefited by public policies. Results: according to the entrepreneurial profile four groups were identified, the performance in each group was directly related to entrepreneur’s degree of dedication and inversely related to condition of being previously unemployed and public policies were found to be pro-poor biased. |

El trabajo aborda la temática de la micro-empresa exitosa en Argentinaen el contexto de la crisis financiera internacional de los años 2007 y 2008, cuyos efectos se superponen con los de la crisis local de 2001-2002.El estudio analiza tres aspectos de las microempresas, no suficientemente estudiados en la literatura sobre economías emergentes: perfil empresarial del propietario, desempeño en cada grupo y perfil de los micro-emprendedores beneficiarios de las políticas públicas. Resultados: cuatro grupos fueron identificados, el desempeño en cada grupo estuvo relacionado directamente con el grado de dedicación e inversamente a la condición de desempleado y las políticas públicas tuvieron un efecto pro-pobres.
