These entrepreneur typologies vary in how they discover social opportunities, determine their impact on the broader social system, and assemble the resources needed to pursue these opportunities. This approach further increases our understanding as to why social entrepreneurship offers solutions to complex social issues by applying business market oriented models. These solutions reflect the unique values that social entrepreneurs hold, and the search processes they follow in identifying, evaluating, and exploiting opportunities in a complex and uncertain world.
