“…Small social entrepreneurs (SSEs) are involved in the innovative use and combination of resources to pursue opportunities to create social and environmental value through profitmaking activities (Mair and Marti, 2006;Murphy and Coombes, 2009;Saebi et al, 2019), and usually operate in contexts characterised by resource constraints (Shepherd et al, 2020;Sottini et al, 2022). To overcome such limitations, SSEs often engage in so-called entrepreneurial bricolage (EB) (Di Domenico et al, 2010;Busch and Barkema, 2021), that is, an approach of "making do by applying combinations of the resources at hand to new problems and opportunities", using creativity and improvisation and refusing to be constrained (Baker and Nelson, 2005).…”
