Abstract

Since the popularization of the term in the 1980s and 1990s, the concept of “social entrepreneurship” (SE) has continued to attract a significant amount of attention from a diverse set of actors. The community includes entrepreneurs, investors, educators, and policymakers who share a commitment to achieving positive social impact using innovative and financially sustainable methods. In parallel, theoretical and empirical research in this area has proliferated, engaging scholars across fields such as business and management, social sciences, organizational studies, and public policy.1
