This study had the main objective to contribute to the understanding of the social context that surrounded the innovative Brazilian and Spanish entrepreneurs that emerged in their own countries of origin, seeking to map and understand relevant social relations established during the delicate period of emergence of their ventures in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, focusing specifically on the role that organizations and social norms had over this period. Authors aligned with the thinking of Economic Sociology were used as reference for the determination of research questions, which led to the execution of a comparative study between entrepreneur finalists of the same award given to innovative Brazilian and Spanish entrepreneurs. A total of 19 entrepreneurs coming from sectors paired in the countries were interviewed and documents about them and their ventures were studied, making it possible to verify, among other things, the relatively homogeneous influence of the social context of both countries during the emergence of ventures founded by entrepreneurs coming from higher social classes, with particular emphasis on the complicated standards of financing options, on the consistent increase in social and public support to entrepreneurship, in the high emotional involvement that entrepreneurs establish with their ventures and in the peculiar role that trust play among entrepreneurs, their partners and employees.
