Core offering

Corporación ENLACE is a Colombian nonprofit consulting organization that delivers advisory and project-based services across three strategic units: Innovation (innovation management, social innovation, R&D+i, and environmental innovation), Productivity (family business advisory and operational optimization), and Entrepreneurship (innovative entrepreneurship and Famiempresa acceleration). It serves enterprises, government institutions, SMEs, and Chambers of Commerce across Colombia and Latin America through methodologies such as Fábricas de Productividad and structured innovation frameworks.

Product overview

Corporación ENLACE is a Colombian nonprofit consulting and advisory organization with over 23 years of experience, operating as a platform of consulting services organized across three strategic business units — Innovación (Innovation), Productividad (Productivity), and Emprendimiento (Entrepreneurship). The Innovación unit encompasses four service modules: Gestión de la Innovación (innovation management and governance), Innovación Social (social innovation and community development), Gestión de I+D+i (R&D and technology-driven innovation), and Gestión del Desarrollo e Innovación Ambiental (environmental sustainability and green innovation). The Productividad unit delivers the Legado Familia y Futuro module for family business succession and operational optimization. The Emprendimiento unit provides the Emprendimiento Innovador service, applying an adaptive Fábricas de Productividad methodology to accelerate growth of small businesses and famiempresas. Beyond direct consulting, the organization produces educational content, publishes methodology guides (Valiente, Titanes, Héroes series), and runs blog-based knowledge-dissemination resources covering AI, innovation project formulation, and corporate social responsibility. The portfolio functions as an integrated advisory ecosystem where the three units interconnect — for example, innovation methodologies feed productivity improvements and entrepreneurial growth — rather than as standalone software products.
