Satellite Laboratory for Social Entrepreneurship HSE SPB - UTM Malaysia
Reflecting Impact: The Cross-Country Analysis for Social Entrepreneurship in Malaysia, Russia and Mexico
Welcome to this Satellite Laboratory, a pioneering initiative dedicated to comprehensively analyzing social entrepreneurship across diverse and dynamic regions. In 2023, we started studying Russia and Malaysia; in October 2024, we added Mexico to the equation. Our mission is to explore and reflect upon the profound impact of social enterprises in these countries, providing valuable insights and fostering collaboration.
International Partner Universities
The Satellite Laboratory is a collaborative effort between the Laboratory for Reputation Management in Education (RepLab) at HSE University Saint-Petersburg, Russia, and The ACT Lab at Azman Hashim International Business School, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM). This unique partnership brings together expertise from these and other partner institutions to advance the field of social entrepreneurship through rigorous research and cross-country analysis.
Since 2024, the University Panamericana (Guadalajara, Mexico) has started collaborating with this initiative. We intend to study Social entrepreneurship in Mexico and Russia, as well as in the fastest-growing countries, which will be examined to explore how diverse backgrounds can foster innovative solutions to common social problems. This analysis will examine how social enterprises in both countries contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Additionally, the policy environments in Russia and Mexico will be analyzed and compared, identifying best practices and gaps in supporting social entrepreneurs.
Our key objectives include:
- Comparative Analysis: Investigating the similarities and differences in social entrepreneurship practices and outcomes in Russia, Malaysia, and Mexico.
- Impact Assessment: Evaluating the social, economic, and environmental impact of social enterprises in both regions.
- Best Practices: Identifying and disseminating successful strategies and models that can be adopted across different contexts.
- Policy Recommendations: Providing evidence-based recommendations to policymakers to enhance the support and growth of social enterprises.
Join us as we delve into social entrepreneurship, reflecting on its impact and paving the way for a more inclusive and sustainable future. Contact magaetesepulveda@hse.ru
