Hi. Thanks for the post. CSE and CSR….Some good points.

My view is that CSR and CSE are the same things really. All the points you named here are equally relevant for CSR in my opinion.

Any thoughts?

Regards,
Fabian

I remember my cousin Ryan Stoner was working on the development of this site about a year ago. I’ll check in with him to see if his company ended up developing it, and what his thoughts are on how things are going.

Quote from the article:
“There has been a lot of buzz about social entrepreneurs. But the concept sometimes gets lost in translation.”

This is the most interesting and something that many other countries are struggling with, Bulgaria being another one. Even the direct translation immediately places it more on the nonprofit side than bringing business tools to the social sector. How do you change that?
