Design objective DO2: Social purpose
Social businesses act as a change agent for the world and pursue the creation of social benefits (Yunus et al. 2010). Thus, although the prototype is required to cover its costs, the social perspective and more cause-driven character are first priority (Boons and Lüdeke-Freund 2013).
