Program context
How We Define Social and Green Entrepreneurship
A social or green enterprise is characterized by its core reason for existence and the problems it aims to address. The social or environmental purpose lies at the core of its vision and mission, serving as a crucial factor in decision-making.
Critical points of a social or green enterprise:
- It is inherently driven by purpose and explicitly incorporates its social or environmental objective.
- It integrates its social or environmental purpose into its vision, mission, values, and business model.
- The social or environmental purpose is so deeply ingrained that it becomes a decisive element in the business’s choices.
