Social intrapreneurship
Social intrapreneurship is the action of a social intrapreneur. A social intrapreneur is someone who works to develop and promote practical solutions to social or environmental challenges and acts as a social entrepreneur inside a major organization [1]. A social intrapreneur might also be called a Corporate Social Entrepreneur[2]
The definition of a social intrapreneur was described by two landmark reports on the subject. Net Impact, with the support of eBay, wrote Making Your Impact at Work[3]. SustainAbility, with the support of IDEO, Skoll Foundation, and Allianz, wrote The Social Intrapreneur: A Field Guide for Corporate Changemakers[4].
BeDo held the first conference on the subject, BeDo Intra 2009, around the Social Capital Markets Conference (SOCAP09) in San Francisco[5].
