摘要：The aim of this paper is to identify and highlight those conditions and characteristicsthat will facilitate the internationalization of Greek Social Enterprises (GSEs) and,thereby, enhance their sustainability and performance characteristics. In Greece,social enterprises have a very low degree of internationalization. Assessed on theirfundamental characteristics (turnover, employment, size), they fail to respondto criteria of extrovert Social Enterprises. We also highlight policy measuresthat may support and encourage social enterprises to internationalize. Throughinternationalization,positive effects on the viability and further development ofGSEs will emerge, specifically related to strengthening their competitive position inthe domestic and international markets, by raising capacity innovation, increasingsales, creating new jobs and acquiring a healthier financial position.
