The Social Enterprises (SE)The Social Enterprises (SE)2
"The social enterprise (SE) can make a contribution of great importance to the strategic reorientation of growth towards a new model of development, more sustainable and equitable, that might focus on the work and the human person”. General Secretary of Unioncamere of Italy (2011)
“The importance to the European economy and society of cooperatives, mutual societies, associations, foundations and social enterprises (which together are sometimes referred to as the Social Economy) is nowreceiving greater recognition at Member State and European levels. Not only are they significant economic actors, they also play a key role in involving their members and European citizens more fully in Society. Social Economy enterprises are helping to meet the demands of a changing Europe. They are important sources of entrepreneurship and jobs in areas where traditional “investor driven" enterprise structures may not always be viable”Erkki Liikanen Member for Enterprise and Society of European Commission (2010)

Area of Investigation: SSome Numbers 3
Growth in social entrepreneurship globally over the last decade has been impressive
social entrepreneurship is a “good thing”
�European Commission 2011: more than 11 million jobs in the social economy membership of social economy enterprises: 160 million
�Social economy enterprises represent 2 million enterprises (i.e. 10% of all European businesses)
� employ over 11 million paid employees (the equivalent of 6% of the working population of the EU).
� Italian case, the report of Iris Network 2011: 15000 SEs, 350000 employees

Area of Investigation: Idea of SEs4
The Social Enterprises (SEs):private, autonomous, entrepreneurial organizationsproducing goods or services with the goal of providing benefits for the community.
SEs • Have relevant expected impact in term of social value creation• They represent a potential response to critical problems in the North/South of the world
The SEs has 3 main pillars: 1- maximization of profit is transformed into means (goal in classical theory)2- “social entrepreneur” satisfies unmet social needs. 3- transforming the social benefit into a real “business idea”
I. Bengo – Social Enterprise AH-DESIGN, EU PROJECT
Development of SEDevelopment of SE5
Different reasons of social economy’s development during last 20 year
� Privatization of the public responsibility for public welfare:
• government’s participation decline regarding the services offered to the community• the experimentation with "new forms of solidarity and collectivity" by civil society and social movements as they enter high politics
�The development of a culture better oriented to the responsibility and personal
involvement towards social problems:
�Increase of the entrepreneurial spirit of no profit sector (association, ONGs, Cooperatives)
• introduction a social purpose to a business company, corporation or even government
the third sector’s will to increase its entrepreneurship and the social enterprise’s interest to unify its values with the standard profit sector business’s principles
• changes occurred into the no-profit sector for increase the opportunities of funding

SE as a middle way between two extremesSE as a middle way between two extremes6
SE represents a hybrid form, located somewhere in between the traditional non-profit and for-profit organizations
� SEs pursue a broad social goal, they try to promote a new model of economic development, fostering a more democratic decision-making process
� From an economic standpoint, SEs need to assure their economic sustainability: market oriented activities and fundrising are strictly “at the service” of the social goal
Compared to not for profit entities, SEs have the purpose to achieve social benefit, but their vision, organization and processes are quite different when compared to non-profits
Ses achieve social goals that meld socio-political, environmental, and financial objectives: give them a major importance compared to profit organizations (social purpose is central to the Se operation)
ensure access to basic services
Role: contribute to
more balanced use of local resources
promotion of inclusive governance models
creation of new job opportunites
strengthening social capital
convey informal activities

SE as a middle way between two extremesSE as a middle way between two extremes7
Hybrid Model of Social Entrepreneurship:
Alter (2004): "Hybrid Spectrum of sustainability" to underline the Ses position respect the other organizations.
On the right hand side of the spectrum are for-profit entities that create social value but whose main motives are profit-making and distribution of profit to shareholders
On the left hand side of the spectrum are nonprofits with commercial activities that generate economic value to fund social programs but whose main motive is mission realization as
dictated by stakeholder mandate. The characteristic that separates the two groups is purpose.
As a hybrid, the social enterprise is driven by two strong forces

4°Sector: For -benefit organizations
Figure 1 details the traditional organizations � new kind of firm: for-benefit organizations.
These organizations are driven by a social purpose, they are economically self-sustaining and seek to be socially, ethically, and environmentally responsible.
Dennis A. Pitta and J. Howard Kucher,University of Baltimore, Baltimore, Maryland, USA, Journal of Product & Brand ManagementVolume 18 · Number 2 · 2009 · 154–158
Social enterprises are prime examples of for-benefit organizations

Context : Different definitionsDifferent definitions9
SOURCE DEFINITION
DTI, Department of Trade and Industry; 2002
Businesses with primarily social objectives whose surpluses are principally reinvested for that purpose in the business or in the community, rather than being driven by the need to maximise profit for shareholders and owners
M. Bull, H. Crompton; 2007
Enterprises with the specific purpose of addressing social issues, in favor of the community or the environment and employ a business structure that allows it to remain sustainable
EMES Borzaga, Defourny; 2001defines of a set of
common criteria
To reflect the economic and entrepreneurial dimensions:a) A continuous activity producing goods and/or selling servicesb) A high degree of autonomyc) A significant level of economic riskd) A minimum amount of paid workTo encapsulate the social dimensions:e) An explicit aim to benefit the communityf) An initiative launched by a group of citizensg) A decision-making power not based on capital ownershiph) A participatory nature, which involves the various parties affected by the activityi) A limited profit distribution
The academic and professional literature provides several definitions of SE
I. Bengo – Social Enterprise AH-DESIGN, EU PROJECT

1. SEs are multi – objective organizations
2. SEs have a multi-stakeholder governanceexternal players more relevant compared to the private sector:
• Participation of stakeholders in the decision making processes is mandatory to understand the real needs of the context

Problems15
Problem The lack of consistent performance measurement systems
� Limits the understanding of SEs’ contribution to the socio-economic development� Prevent SEs from proving efficiency, accountability and transparency to internal and external stakeholders � Limits investors’ interest
Objective
To investigate how SE results can be measured: with respect to their social,
environmental and economic impact, considering the characteristics of SEs
The proposed approach aims to provide operational guidance to identify:� SE’s relevant stakeholders and their informative needs, � the dimensions against which SEs performances should be assessed, considering the stakeholders expectations.
. . social enterprises are competing with the private and public sector and the need to stress the wider impacts becomes ever more needed. This underlies the significance of measuring the wider social, economic and environmental impacts of such initiatives (Brennan and Ackers, 2004)

Italy: Exploratory Survey16
Sample: out of 757 SEs (from "Union Camere", “impresasociale.net”, Make a Change and Iris
Network data bases) 90 SEs responded (12% response rate)
Survey designed to provide a picture of the current state of development of Measure for SEs
Questionnaire construction
1. The first section addressed descriptive characteristics of the SE
2. The second section focused on the motivations to be social enterprise
3. The third section focused on the issue of measuring performances in SEs:
• Which indicators are currently measured by SEs
• Which indicators are considered relevant to measure
• Which are the difficulties SEs have in the measurement
30 items to cover the five performance dimensions identified:
a)Efficiency and financial sustainabilityb)Management efficiencyc)Social effectivenessd)Impacte)Consistency

Some evidence
EVIDENCE 1: SE’s have multi-objectives: in many cases, the same social enterprise operates in different areas
EVIDENCE 2: The same social enterprise works for continuous activities and projects
EVIDENCE 3: The social enterprises born to respond to social needs
EVIDENCE 4: Social enterprises consider the aspect of consistency with the social missions to be most relevant
EVIDENCE 5: The social enterprises consider relevant: economic, social, environmental issues
EVIDENCE 6: The social enterprises are multi-stakeholder systems, this aspect determines the different information needs of the different stakeholders
EVIDENCE 7: Social enterprises have difficulties in measuring, they require a simple measurement systems

31In practice ...
. . social enterprises are competing with the private and public sector and the need to stress the wider impacts becomes ever more needed. This underlies the significance of measuring the wider social, economic and environmental impacts of such initiatives (Brennan and Ackers, 2004)
Increasing understanding that economic activities generate social and
environmental outcomes, whether positive or negative, and that social or
environmental activities can also create economic impacts.
The recent practical and policy interest in the concept of social enterprise illustrates this attention to models of wealth creation that can also be socially inclusive and environmentally sustainable (Aeron-Thomas et al., 2004).
