Abstract

This chapter addresses the values and motivations that drive B Corp entrepreneurs and social entrepreneurs. Drawing on prior research, it shows that the literature emphasizes the central importance of personal values and motivations of B Corp entrepreneurs in B Corps. However, unlike the adjacent field of social entrepreneurship, the particular values and motivation of B Corp entrepreneurs have only been addressed to a very limited extent. Therefore, the chapter turns towards social entrepreneurship to learn about the self- and other-oriented motives of social entrepreneurs. This in turn enables us to better understand why people run a social business.
