Social Entrepreneurship – Case Report The Wateroam case clearly depicts the idea to continuously build, measure and learn from the book “The Lean Startup” by Eric Ries. They develop a business idea and create several prototypes, adjust the product, and constantly improve to finally become a successful business. The importance of perseverance and repeatedly testing to improve a product in accordance with the target group is clearly reflected. This highlights the significance of continuous innovation and a solid business idea to succeed within social entrepreneurship. Indeed, a rigid and feasible business idea is crucial for all entrepreneurs, including the ones committed to social and sustainable entrepreneurship. Overreliance on donations or NGO support is not a sustainable long-term solution. Only when a business achieves financial viability can it expand its reach, significantly impact the world, and enhance the quality of life for vast communities. David Pong's quote about resisting the military and hiking markets left a strong impression. The trade-off between financial and social incentives is clear in social entrepreneurship. It underscores the importance of maintaining intrinsic drive and staying aligned with the broader vision. This can be tied to the Japanese concept “Ikigai” which means “reason for being” – rejecting the military/hiking offer likely gives them a higher sense of purpose and greater long-term satisfaction. Social entrepreneurship addresses solving challenging societal problems and helping others, but ultimately, it might also lead to entrepreneurs themselves experiencing more joy in life compared to choosing an alternative path. Our team’s idea is to aid the elderly in using technology, allowing them to perform basic smartphone functions with an instruction manual. One key insight from the Wateroam case that can develop our idea is to continuously build, measure and learn. The initial product does not have to be perfect – what matters most is to consistently test and enhance the product until it effectively caters to the needs of the target group. Our idea could develop from a simple booklet, which perhaps contains unnecessary information or misses crucial steps, to an accurate and useful instruction manual. Continuous innovation is also crucial because technology and society is constantly developing, and the business must stay adaptable to not fall behind. A solid business idea must function financially. To achieve this, the manual should be produced at a low cost and have competitive advantage. The product can be sold directly to end-users or though government organisations. Again, the trade-off between financial and social incentives is present. Therefore, a team with the intrinsic drive to educate the elderly is vital when determining pricing strategy. The goal to improve social inclusion and higher quality of life is the priority, while meeting financial requirements.
