S2 -SE TALKS #1: Motivation for Entering Social Entrepreneurship

SEtalks #1 – Motivation for Entering Social Entrepreneurship

04 November from 12:30 PM, UTC +1

Zoom platform

🤩 Social entrepreneurship is a concept that has allured worldwide attention. It is no more a notion that there are certain people or enterprises that are doing good instead of making profits, but an emerging concept that is taking its place under the sun as a new economic model that fosters change and facilitates transition towards a better society.

📚 There are a lot of studies investigating the motivation of people for entering social entrepreneurship and operating a social enterprise. However, we want to hear first-hand what was the motivation for our speakers.

❓Was it the strong desire to change society?

❓Was it the need to be socially responsible?

❓Maybe wanting to make a difference in peoples’ lives?

To understand and explore the motivations of social entrepreneurs we seek the answer to the question:

❓What motivates people to engage in a social enterprise?
