Business model Innovation in social enterprises is different from the context of For-profit businesses. To address social issues, social businesses innovate to create social impact and transform their systems. Although Innovative solutions by social businesses to address complex social challenges have received increasing attention from entrepreneurs and academics but there are few studies about the drivers of innovations. In this study we review the literature and propose a theoretical framework for studying drivers of business model innovation in social enterprises. According to our framework, innovation drivers should investigate at three levels inclining environmental, organizational and individual levels. PESTEL analysis, dynamic capabilities and abilities and attitudes of people can guide searching drivers at this framework.
