“…However, in this regard, there is no consensus among academics. While Rodgers [95] found that firms with SEO have a risk tolerance over any other entrepreneurial firm, Spence et al [53] and Gawel [1] indicate that risk taking exists but is calculated and limited, and Lumpkin et al [41] argue that, in this type of firm, risks tend to be avoided. In any case, as stressed by Murillo-Luna et al [136], a proactive strategy towards sustainable development involves the implementation of new processes, technologies and systems, and this always carries a certain risk due to the uncertainty of its eventual impact on organizational performance.…”

“…The literature on sustainable entrepreneurship has another line of research centered on the so-called social entrepreneurship, with contributions that focused primarily on the social aspect of sustainability (e.g., Prahalad and Hammond [37], Nicolls [38], Hall et al [22], De Clercq and Voronov [20], Apetrei et al [39], Ferreira et al [40]); that is, on non-economic aspects of work, like social improvement and welfare [41]. According to Zahra et al [42], this type of entrepreneurship refers to all activities and processes aimed at identifying and exploiting those opportunities that improve social wealth through the creation of social capital, social change or attention to social needs.…”

This paper proposes sustainable entrepreneurial orientation (SEO) as a multidimensional construct that offers researchers the possibility of empirically testing their theoretical proposals in the sustainable entrepreneurship field. The authors propose an integration of different theories. In accordance with the dynamic capabilities view, SEO is approached under an organizational paradigm of strategic orientations delimited by competitive culture and multiple orientation perspectives. Furthermore, SEO's nature is conceived at a firm-based entrepreneurship level and is based on an integrated triple bottom line sustainability. This approach is conceptualized using a categorization scheme and defined in accordance with the organizational predisposition perspective. Several research lines are proposed, all based on relational models with SEO as the key concept.

“…Therefor governments are faced with many problems that they are not well equipped to deal with such rising social needs and issues (Lumpkin et al, 2013). Also, it is believed that the social entrepreneurship represents a new structure and ideology that can capture social, economic and environmental values for society's development (Nga & Shamuganathan, 2010;Noruzi et al, 2010;Zebrowski, 2009;Davari & Farokhmanesh, 2017).…”

In this article, we study hybrid organizations, namely those practicing social entrepreneurship and those practicing durable entrepreneurship. These organizations do not choose between the contradictory requirements fostered by the objectives that they pursue, be they double objectives (social and economic) or triple (social, economic and environmental). Rather, they choose to accept the tensions inherent in the pursuit of contradictory objectives. This study is based on a cluster analysis of 244 small-and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). It identifies and distinguishes between three main types of organization, commercial SMEs, social entrepreneurship SMEs and sustainable SMEs. These types of SMEs, even though they resemble each other in their structural characteristics (size, age, revenue), differ in terms of the actualization of their entrepreneurial and market orientations. RÉSUMÉDans cet article, nous étudions les organisations hybrides, c'est-à-dire celles de l'entrepreneuriat social et de l'entrepreneuriat durable. Ces organisations, plutôt que de choisir entre les exigences contradictoires posées par les objectifs doubles (social et économique) ou triples (social, économique et environnemental) qu'elles s'efforcent d'atteindre, choisissent d'accepter les tensions créées par la poursuite d'objectifs contradictoires. L'étude permet, à partir d'une analyse de regroupement réalisée auprès de 244 PME, d'identifier et de distinguer trois principaux types d'organisation, soit les PME commerciales, les PME d'entreprenariat social et les PME d'entrepreneuriat durable. En outre, ces types de PME, dont les caractéristiques structurelles (taille, âge, revenus) ne sont pas différentes, diffèrent en ce qui concerne l'actualisation de l'orientation entrepreneuriale et de l'orientation envers le marché.
