The social enterprise (SE) plays an increasingly significant role in the Brazilian market. These organizations, whether for profit or not, share the goal of having a positive social impact. The concept of social enterprises emerged in the United States in the 1960s and 1970s and in Europe in the 1990s. The use of technologies refers to Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and they play a fundamental role in ESs, as they can reduce costs and transform the way we interact with other people and organizations.
