- 研究成果概要
- This study aimed to obtain suggestions for the process of the formation of social entrepreneurship by investigating and analyzing the motivations and business activities of social entrepreneurs. With a particular focus on Japanese social entrepreneurs/ supporters of entrepreneurs who directly and indirectly worked in the area of international development, it looked at various cases in Japan, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka. This study revealed: entrepreneurs were motivated by having opportunities for directly observing social issues that their target societies faced; and goods and services that they provided were merely means for solving such issues. This research also made it possible to collect valuable data, which could lead to the development of future research. The findings of this study will be presented in academic conferences and/or published in academic journals after further analysis of the collected data.
