- © 2018 Universidad Complutense de Madrid. A social entrepreneur is a person capable to recognize business opportunities and to solve problems that affect other people. The few studies available in the literature about this kind of entrepreneur, make necessary to develop research related to identify their characteristics. This study aims to validate an instrument to measure the social entrepreneurial potential. The purpose of the Assessment Test of Entrepreneurial Potential is to serve as a tool that helps business incubators, training programs designers, and it can also be used within programs that manage social responsibility programs, such as cooperatives, to know the entrepreneur needs. Moreover, the instrument allows entrepreneurs to identify their entrepreneurial potential to develop their social entrepreneurial skills.
