Abstract
No social entrepreneurship or social economy policy has been adopted in the Czech Republic up to now, however there are certain facts that create suitable conditions to establish social enterprises. Research studies confirm that social enterprises linking economic activities with social or environmental objectives in the given area exist.
However, social enterprises have not been formally defined yet, they are not recognized by legislation. Bill on Social Entrepreneurship is currently being prepared and undergoes approval procedures.
In the Czech Republic, a body (office) focusing on social enterprises at government or other level has not been established until now.
