Abstract: Abstract Corporate social responsibility (CSR) has emerged as a significant theme in the global business community in addressing various social concerns. Enterprises integrate social entrepreneurship into their core activities by actively channeling their research and development (R&D) capabilities in the direction of socially innovative products and services (Schwab, 2008). Study of the former socialist economy of Estonia has shown that there are differences in the development of CSR activities between Estonia and countries that have not experienced socialism (Alas & Tafel, 2008). Also, differences in the connections between CSR and innovation climate have been found (Ubius & Alas, 2012).
