Social Entrepreneurship...


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.”  – Wikipedia
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
Some more info coming your way!!
