Abstract: Abstract The main purpose of this chapter is to examine how we can maximize the public benefit of entrepreneurial activity and increasingly engage the strengths of the private sector in boosting social impact in the Middle East through growth of scalable social enterprises. The chapter examines challenges to social enterprise scaling in the Middle East and offers recommendations for enhancing the scalability of social impact and social enterprises through using tools and adaptations of tools that have been developed for use in for-profit entrepreneurship and that address specific challenges to social enterprises in the region.
