The research question(s) for the study may depend on the student's interest in social business, in social enterprises, in global supply chains or in new business models, as well as in the region of focus being emerging economies like India or developed economies like the UK. There is a wide variety of questions possible such as: How do social enterprises create and capture value with micro-entrepreneurs in emerging economies? What is the mix of appropriate supply chain performance measures for the sustained success of a social enterprise/social business working with micro-entrepreneurs? How can we create a demonstrably equitable way of sharing mutually created value between the social enterprise/social business and its micro-entrepreneurs? To what extent should a social enterprise help the poor to become good employees versus good entrepreneurs?
