semipública

Semipública is a term used to describe entities or organizations that exhibit characteristics of both public and private sectors. These entities are not entirely state-owned nor are they fully private enterprises. They often operate with a degree of government oversight or funding, while also maintaining some operational autonomy and potentially seeking profit. The exact nature of a semipública entity can vary significantly depending on the legal framework and specific context of the country or region in which it operates.

In some instances, semipública entities are created to provide public services that might be more efficiently managed by private sector principles. This can involve public-private partnerships where private companies are contracted to manage or operate public infrastructure or services. Alternatively, a semipública organization might be a former state-owned enterprise that has been partially privatized, retaining some state shareholding or control. These entities can exist in various sectors, including transportation, energy, telecommunications, and healthcare. The balance between public interest and private efficiency is a key consideration in the governance and operation of semipública organizations.
