Abstract

The purpose of the present paper is to investigate the factors contributing to the sustainability of Social Cooperative enterprises in Greece as these were perceived by the social entrepreneurs themselves. A survey was conducted using closed-ended questions.Exploratory analysis showed that integrated support was considered as the most important factor contributing to the sustainability of Social Cooperative enterprises. Furthermore, networking, awareness - raising and publicity were considered to be of much importance for the sustainability of them. The current study adds to the knowledge regarding the perspectives of Greek social entrepreneurs and to the body of much-needed quantitative research.
