Chapter Chapter 2 in Social Innovation and New Business Models, 2012, pp 19-35 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The chapter analyzes social innovation at the level of the business model. The study clarifies the main characteristics and differences among alternative models of business to target the low income sector. Starting with the literature on social entrepreneurship and business models, a new theoretical framework “The Social Business Model Framework” is developed. The framework is used to identify the main characteristics of social business models and to emphasize the main area where social innovation can be applied.
