This core adoptable textbook equips students with the tools needed to create and manage a successful social enterprise and provides an excellent balance between theory and practice.

This new second edition shows how theories, models and concepts within entrepreneurship, business strategy and international marketing can be adapted to create high-impact social ventures that will deliver both positive impact and commercial success.
