Elias G. Carayannis, Evangelos Grigoroudis, Dimitra Stamati, Theodora Valvi · 2019 · IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management

Summary. This paper proposes an ecosystem framework for social business model innovation using quadruple and quintuple helix models. The framework integrates civil society, political structures, environment, and sustainability to enable social innovation that improves human well-being. Case studies demonstrate that open innovation and clearly defined social missions drive successful social business models through collaborative knowledge creation and exploitation.
