    Science as a social enterprise

    Science is also far from a self-contained or self-sufficient


    enterprise. Technological developments critically influence
    science, as when a new device, such as a telescope,
    microscope, rocket, or computer, opens up whole new areas
    of inquiry. Societal forces also affect the directions of
    research, greatly complicating descriptions of scientific
    progress.

    . A social enterprise is a business catering to social causes
    from its commercial profits. Social enterprise funding is
    through government grants, donations, and surplus profits of
    the business. There are four types of social businesses:
    trading, financial, community and NGOs.
    Social science enterprise four elements
    These are: Social mission over financial mission. Innovative
    solution to social problems. Self-sustaining business model.
    Example
    Founded by Blake Mycoskie, TOMS Shoes pioneered the "One
    for One" business model. The One for One model means that
    for every pair of shoes purchased, TOMS donates another
    pair to a needy child.
