The purpose of International Social Entrepreneurship Research Colloquium at the College of Business and Public Management, Kean (Union, USA & Wenzhou, China) is to create new knowledge of 'Social Entrepreneurship.'

The research colloquium addresses these research inquiries:
-
What does drive social entrepreneurship?
-
How to develop social entrepreneurs?
-
What does strategic intervention or policy create a mass-scale social impact?
-
How can we transform 'cultural, social, and human' assets into social values?
-
What managerial applications boost social innovation?
-
What are the commonalities and differences between American and Chinese social enterprises and social entrepreneurs?
The research colloquium disseminates research outcomes at academic journals, academic or professional conferences, classroom teachings, mass-media, and social network services to create social impacts.
