Abstract
This research attempts to contribute to a better understanding of the enterprising
phenomenon located at the base of the economic and social pyramid in Brazil, to
investigate the behavior, motivations and characteristics of the entrepreneurs of lanhouses
located at the Community of Rocinha, as well as to identify and describe the
types of businesses and the kinds of customers who make use of these services.
Rocinha is a community endowed with singularities and many contrasts. Through an
investigative survey that uses a structured questionnaire divided into five sections, it is
expected, in spite of the limitations of the method, to contribute to the knowledge and
debate concerning the entrepreneurial phenomenon of lan-houses which are driven by
the enterprising character of individuals who give their considerable contribution to the
development of the country as they offer new services to people with social
vulnerability. The conclusion is that the enterprising characteristics of the lan houses´
owners surveyed converge to what the established literature suggests. In this way,
these entrepreneurs created their businesses encouraged by the opportunity they
visualize and developed typical behaviors of this kind of entrepreneur.
