The conference is dedicated to the presentation of the book Creation and management of social enterprises: theory and case studies, coordinated by professors Marta Mas-Machuca (UIC Barcelona), and Ramon Bastida-Vialcanet (BSM/UPF). The book consists of 8 chapters each of which includes a theoretical topic on Social Enterprise, and its application in a real case study, as well as a series of self-assessment questions that help evaluate the understanding of the chapter contents. This book is the result of a collaboration of 12 experts in Social Enterprise from 4 higher education entities. Its realization has been possible thanks to the financing through the program “Economia Social”, driven by The Department of Work, Social Affairs and Families of the Generalitat de Catalunya, and the Ministry of Work and Social Economy of Spain, obtained in the framework of the project Aracoop.
