Social? Entrepreneurship

Abstract

The current socioeconomic model favours the individual over society which consequently increases the gap between the rich and the poor. This model brings entrepreneurship and generates employment, however it remains as an ineffective yet perverse act in the pursuit of social equality. Groups, companies, institutions and associations arise as a result of this reality. These entities embark upon new formats that could be embraced under a ’social entrepreneurship’ concept. Technology parks, Unreasonable Institue and the company Vetelia are a clear example of this behaviour.
