Bruce Lezana holds a master’s degree in finance and a B.A. in Management Information Systems from the University of Chile. He is a recipient of a Fulbright U.S. Student Program grant supporting his Ph.D. studies. He was a visiting scholar at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, where he studied the intersection of institutional theory and entrepreneurship, further strengthening his research agenda in an international academic environment. His research examines entrepreneurial ecosystems, with a particular focus on how institutional contexts shape entrepreneurial behavior under conditions of uncertainty and risk, and how these dynamics contribute to persistent socioeconomic inequality.
