International research project SEFORÏS has surveyed over 1000 directors of social enterprises
Researchers from project have surveyed over 1 000 social enterprises across Sweden, EU, Russia and China to understand how business are creating significant societal value in a market-oriented way. The survey will provide with a unique dataset that will help to better understand how social enterprises are governed, how they finance their activities, how they manage innovation process and how social enterprises foster societal change and scale their impact.
Critical to the success of the survey was integrating the issue of context - how formal and informal institutions, social capital environment and resources affect social enterprise performance and vice versa. In conjunction with the analysis of governance, impact, financing and innovation, this should allow 厂贰贵翱搁脧厂 project team to develop thoughtful insights for new policy geared toward social entrepreneurs and social innovation.
厂贰贵翱搁脧厂 project began in January 2014 and will run until the end of April 2017. During the project various research and working papers on key processes within social enterprises including the organisation and governance, financing, innovation and behavioural change, and investigation of the formal and informal institutional context will be carried out. SITE is mainly responsible for developing a novel framework of financing modes and models for social entrepreneurs, gathering evidence on the specifics of funding for social entrepreneurs and developing deep cases on social entrepreneurship examining the financing forms. Research publications regarding financing of social entrepreneurship will be published on SITE's website.
