N2 - AbstractPurpose – This study examines how perceived institutional support, parental role models, andentrepreneurial self-efficacy, representing both macro-level and personal-level factors, collectively influencestudents’ intentions to pursue entrepreneurship in Mexico and Uruguay.Design/methodology/approach – This research utilized quantitative methodology, specifically surveytechniques, to collect data from students attending private universities. The study achieved a valid sample sizeof 419 respondents. Various reliability and validity tests were conducted before structural equation modelingwas employed to test the hypothesized relationships between variables.Findings – The analysis revealed that perceived institutional support does not directly impact students’entrepreneurial intentions (EI). Instead, its effect is mediated through entrepreneurial self-efficacy and thepresence of parental role models, both of which are strong predictors of EI. Additionally, the study identified adirect correlation between students’ nationality, their academic programs, and their EI. Age and gender,however, did not significantly influence EI.Research limitations/implications – This study provides theoretical insights into understanding EI bycombining macro-level and personal factors. This integrative method contributes to a more comprehensiveapproach of predicting EI within the context of Latin America.Practical implications – The study suggests boosting investment to improve the quality of institutions,fostering an environment that supports entrepreneurship, and offering students opportunities to learn fromsuccessful role models.Originality/value – This study was conducted in the context of two economies in Latin America. Thenovelty lies in combining perceived institutional factors and individual motivators to understand EI in LatinAmerica. It uniquely emphasizes the significance of familial influences, particularly parental role models, inits analysis
