Résumé

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to analyse how family businesses can create a unique context for entrepreneurship through their internal resources, mentioned by Habbershon and Williams (1999) as familiness. Some researchers have used the resource-based view as a theoretical framework in order to investigate entrepreneurial capabilities in family firms which are one of the requirements to create wealth across generation and so we did. Moreover, family business must have the requirements that encourage them to be constantly involved in entrepreneurial activities. A single case study was conducted and semi-structured interviews with family and non-family members of the family firm A were made. We can conclude, despite the fact that this family firm has positive resources that foster entrepreneurship, it could not be classified as Enterprising Family since the culture of this organization does not meet the requirements described by Habbershon (2006) for an entrepreneurial family firm
