LEON-SIGG, María de; VAZQUEZ-REYES, Sodel  and  VILLA-CISNEROS, Juan L.. Factors affecting Information Technology adoption in micro and small enterprises: a qualitative study. RISTI [online]. 2017, n.22, pp.20-36. ISSN 1646-9895.  https://doi.org/10.17013/risti.22.20-36.

Micro and small enterprises are the main source of jobs across Latin America and Mexico. Thus, searching ways to consolidate them is a major area of interest. However, poorly research has been done to find factors affecting Information Technology adoption in low economic growth areas. With this in mind, a qualitative research was done to find internal and external factors that affect adoption in micro and small enterprises in the metropolitan area of Zacatecas, Mexico. Results demonstrate that internal factors coincide with literature review, but external ones not. These results could be used to initiate new research and to modify existent beliefs about training and consolidating micro and small enterprises

Keywords : Information technology; adoption; micro and small enterprises; qualitative study.
