Abstract This study provides a comparative analysis of seven cases of social entrepreneurship that have been widely recognized as successful. The paper suggests factors associated with successful social entrepreneurship, particularly with social entrepreneurship that leads to significant changes in the social, political and economic contexts for poor and marginalized groups. It generates hypotheses about core innovations, leadership, organization, and scaling up in successful social entrepreneurship. The paper concludes with a discussion of the implications for the practice of social entrepreneurship, for further research, and for the continued development of support technologies and institutions that will encourage future social entrepreneurship. The concept of entrepreneurship has a long history in the business sector. A major theme has been the creation of value through innovation. As applied more recently to social concerns, the concept has taken on a variety of meanings. Some, for example, have focused on social entrepreneurship as combining commercial enterprises with social impacts.
