ABSTRACT
Social entrepreneurship is becoming an important area of study within business disciplines. Social entrepreneurship is significant at both the organisational and policy-making levels. The emphasis of this research is a case study in India. There is significant social entrepreneurial activity in emerging economies, but there has been little research of the topic in this context. The purpose of this study is to gain a deeper understanding of how women social entrepreneurs in India (one of the largest emerging economies) create social value. Using a variety of legitimate thematic analysis strategies and careful coding procedures, we identify the sorts of social entrepreneurial activities in India as well as the theoretical subjects that span these activities. These examples illustrate in clear detail how social entrepreneurs effectively combine social and financial aims.
