What
is Social Entrepreneurship?
There have been numerous attempts at
defining Social Entrepreneurship.
“Social
entrepreneurship is the work of a social entrepreneur. A social entrepreneur is
someone who recognizes a social problem and uses entrepreneurial principles to
organize, create, and manage a venture to make social change. Whereas a
business entrepreneur typically measures performance in profit and return, a
social entrepreneur assesses success in terms of the impact s/he has on society.”

There are 3 key components that
emerge out of this definition and are more of less common when it comes to
other variations of the definition of Social Entrepreneurship:
* The problem
* A sustainable solution
* Social change
