Resumo: | The purpose of this thesis is the study of the effect the cross-sector partnering has on social enterprises’ strategies. The recent literature suggests partnerships can help social enterprises to scale impact, to sustain profitability and to enter new markets, but the resulting interactions moved by distinctive goals can also push social enterprises to drift away from their mission. The case of Progetto QUID, an emerging Italian social enterprise in the Fashion industry, offers practical insights towards the possible challenges and opportunities deriving from the engagement of different stakeholders, and how a team can manage them. All the data about Progetto QUID were personally collected with the help of Professor Tommaso Ramus in the period between 2017 and 2018. The case study is interesting for the types of partners QUID has, for-profit and non-profits, which stress even more the complexity of managing a hybrid organisation. The presence of these external actors derives from the appealing business model that combines three elements: the social mission through work inclusion, the environmental goal of recovering waste raw materials and the economic dimension, which supports the dual purpose and differentiate them of similar entities. The case touches multiple aspects aiming to unify some theoretical and empirical knowledge as well as engaging students in this realm that is both growing and consolidating, but which needs further research. |

A literatura recente sugere que as parcerias podem ajudar as mesmas a aumentar o seu impacto social, sustentar a lucratividade e entrar em novos mercados, mas as interações resultantes movidas por objetivos distintos também podem levar as empresas sociais a afastarem-se da sua missão. Portanto, o caso do Progetto QUID, uma empresa social italiana emergente na indústria da moda, oferece conhecimentos práticos para os possíveis desafíos e oportunidades decorrentes do compromisso de diferentes stakeholders e com o team podes os administrar. Os dados foram coletados pessoalmente com a ajuda do professor Tommaso Ramus entre 2017 e 2018. O estudo de caso é interessante para os tipos de parceiros que a QUID tem, com fins lucrativos e sem fins lucrativos, que enfatizam ainda mais a complexidade de gerenciar uma organização híbrida. A presença desses atores externos deriva do atraente modelo empresarial que combina três elementos: a missão social por meio da inclusão no trabalho, o objetivo ambiental de recuperar tecidos e a dimensão econômica, que apóia as duplas missões e as diferencia de entidades similares. O caso aborda múltiplos aspectos com o objetivo de unificar alguns conhecimentos teóricos e empíricos, bem como engajar os alunos nessa área que está crescendo e se consolidando, mas que precisa de mais pesquisas.Vasconcelos, Isabella Francisca Freitas Gouveia deVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaFerrarini, Marta2019-02-01T01:30:29Z2018-06-2120182018-06-21T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/26251TID:201961261enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:31:43Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/26251Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:20:56.870141Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
