Multiple studies show that diverse variables influence the disposition of subjects to perform some action, in that sense and based on the theory of planned behavior (TCP), this work seeks to describe the level of intention to create companies owned by university students and how this is affected by their perception of the stimuli and barriers involved in it. In this sense, a sample of 246 students of business administration and public accounting was taken from the North Headquarters of Cauca of the Universidad del Valle in Colombia, a geographical area that has historically presented economic and social problems. The descriptive results show that around 70% of the students were interested in being entrepreneurs, being their main motivation to undertake family and personal security and what most discourages the lack of capital for it; meanwhile, the differences in means and linear regressions applied as statistical techniques confirm that the greater the global motivation, the greater the entrepreneurial intention in people. The conclusion of the article is that, due to the rewards they receive, for small cities' future professionals, business activity is also an essential development alternative.
