| Sumario: | This paper addresses the case of the company Valle de La Puerta Anonymous Society, born in the department of Chilecito, province of La Rioja, Argentina. The objective of the article is to understand the process of emergence, growth and internationalization of La Puerta and the fruits and weaknesses of its insertion in a peripheral regional innovation system. In conceptual terms, penrosean, evolutionary and the innovation systems conceptual approaches are combined. Thus, a case study is conducted, based on interviews with key informants, among other data sources. Among the results, it stands out that the environmental conditions of La Rioja valleys, the know-how and networks developed by the management team and the links with different public and private institutions have been key to achieving the growth and internationalization process. Structural limitations are also identified, such as the costs of electricity and transportation, and the need for specific policies aimed at the provincial agricultural sector. The paper contributes to fill both an empirical and conceptual void in terms of documentation and reflection on firm trajectories in peripheral contexts. |
