Social enterprise means a lot of different things to different people. But here's a great definition Mark Horoszowski, CEO & Co-founder of MovingWorlds, shared in our conversation: an entity legally created to create social good. It uses the power of the markets to deliver that social good and the profits are invested back into the growth for the sake of creating impact.

In the fourth part of our series, we talked about how social enterprises can stimulate their financial development and impact, and Mark's vision for the future of business.
