Does International Social Entrepreneurship Improve Host Economies? The Impact of Institutions
Organizer: Felipe Calvano Da Silva, U. of Missouri, Columbia
Participant: Howard Aldrich, U. of North Carolina
Organizer: Rhonda K. Reger, U. of Missouri
Participant: Tina Dacin, Queen's U.
Participant: Ute Stephan, Aston Business School

Participant: Lorraine Marie Uhlaner, EDHEC Business School
The purpose of this panel symposium is to engage distinguish scholars in the field of social entrepreneurship and institutions in a formal and interactive discussion of the international social entrepreneurship literature. The discussion will provide insights about: (1) the current state of knowledge in the field; more specifically, discussion about definition and measurements that should be pursued; (2) what theoretical lenses are worth pursuing in future research; (3) how major recent events (i.e. Brexit; political tensions; terrorism in Europe) are affecting international social entrepreneurship; (4) their expectations on the future of international social entrepreneurship literature. In addition, the panelists will be asked to comment on the provocative possible dark side of international social entrepreneurship; that is, the possibility that entrepreneurs from developed nations who start social entrepreneurial ventures in developing countries may be undermining the development of indigenous, self-sustaining entrepreneurial ecosystems through a form of neocolonialism.
See you there!
