This article explains the posture of the entrepreneurs to profit opportunities by the cognitive space in which they move. The identification of opportunities depends on local knowledge of times and places had by entrepreneurs. Each entrepreneur identifies different opportunities because each entrepreneur has a local knowledge which is specific for him. This dispersion of knowledge is explained by the fact that the entrepreneurs do not move in same cognitive spaces. They are captive of what they know and what they know depends on the cognitive space which is theirs. The experiment of the businesses results in identifying market opportunities whereas the knowledge of the procedures of group decision and administrative procedures predisposes in the search of political profits. This demonstration is the subject of the second section of the article. It is preceded by a first section which develops the theoretical framework in which the question of the identification of the political profits arises.
