Introduction
Social Entrepreneurship is about using entrepreneurial skills to craft innovative responses to social problems. It aims at social impact but does not exclude economic wealth creation. Thus it is not limited to the non-profit sector. Social Entrepreneurship involves recognizing opportunities, combining and mobilizing resources, triggering positive change in various domains, and building sustainability.
