Social enterprise research

All the University's research centres identify how social enterprise can be integrated with existing research projects; and all new research projects consider how to contribute new knowledge to inform the social enterprise movement - locally, nationally, and internationally. We do, of course, recognize that social enterprise is not relevant for some areas of research.

We are not unquestioning about or uncritical of social enterprise. Many of our current research projects are actively questioning whether social enterprise is the way ahead for some sectors. We are, after all, a university and asking difficult questions is what we are good at.

For more details of how you can contribute new knowledge to the social enterprise sector, please contact Simon Denny.
