Abstract

The undeniable importance of Amazonian biodiversity as well as the region's infrastructural peculiarities raise the challenges of undertaking business in the region. The so-called Amazonian cost has a direct and indirect impact on investment decisions in the region. To do so, we aim to analyze the Amazonian cost of undertaking in the greenest region of Brazil. As for the methodological aspects, we have a study of a qualitative nature, from secondary sources of bibliographical and documental origin, with the use of information from articles, academic works and books of great relevance for the content analysis. Factors such as: basic costs of displacement, logistics, energy distribution, as well as communication and connectivity, contribute to scare away investments in the region, hamper development and increase inequality and the regional abyss. Thus, regional entrepreneurship and overcoming the Amazonian cost become essential for strengthening the economy and generating employment and sustainable income.
