Social Huh?

What is a social entrepreneur?

1. Not an oxymoron.
2. Someone who recognizes that making the world a better place and making a profit are not mutually exclusive.
3. An entrepreneur who takes into consideration the triple bottom line - the social, environmental, and economic aspects of the operations of an enterprise.

What is a social innovator?

In my humble opinion, a social innovator is an individual who creates a novel approach and offers a new solution to societal problems. According to this definition, a social entrepreneur might be a social innovator, but a social innovator does not have to be a social entrepreneur.
