The objective of this article is to compare organizational and institutional change in two business incubators, one in Medellin, Colombia and another one in Barcelona, Spain; The influence of internal and external factors are both considered as well as the existence, incorporation and institutionalization of public policies as well as business and entrepreneurial programs. A qualitative case study strategy was used for developing the methodological aspect, which supported the documental analysis for the semi-structured interview. The main results show that the Colombian incubator changed its business name because of financial self sustainability needs and lack of coordination and articulation from the National Science, Technology and Innovation System, while the incubator from Spain consolidated its business name broadening its organizational capacities thanks to the favorable opportunities offered by National Science, Technology and Innovation system.

Palabras clave : Business incubator; entrepreneurship; organizational change; institutional change; governance.
