課程目標
In recent years, Social Entrepreneurs get recognized in the business world, leveraging personal management experience and professional skills to address many urgent social needs in public/citizen sectors. The aims of the social entrepreneurs focus on social returns along with business profit for sustainability. Simultaneously, a new form of business has been evolved, “Social Business,” which has a clearly stated social mission for its organizational purpose beyond just profitability. Some of these social businesses got successfully listed in major stock markets to raising capital from IPO’s.

This course will introduce the concept of social entrepreneurship and the toolkit for successful social entrepreneurs. This course will discuss the definition of a social business and its difference from regular business or non-profit organization. It will differentiate social business from corporate social responsibility(CSR). From the cases of those innovative social entrepreneurs and successful social business, we will put into practice to develop business plans and business models for social businesses with missions in education, healthcare, food and nutrition, environment, microfinance, etc.

Yes, we will also put your leaning in the classroom into practice and help a real social business project to launch its services!
