A social entrepreneur is someone who works in an entrepreneurial manner, but for public or social benefit, rather than to make money. (School for Social Entrepreneurs) Social entrepreneurs are individuals with innovative solutions to society’s most pressing social problems. They are ambitious and persistent, tackling major social issues and offering new ideas for wide-scale change. (Ashoka) Social entrepreneurs are innovative problem-solvers who (typically) take a sustainable and business-minded approach to solving persistent social issues. (Return on good)
