Innovation Outcomes

The quest for innovation lies at the heart of European rural development policy and is integral to the Europe 2020 strategy. While social innovation has become a cornerstone of increased competitiveness and the rural situation legitimizes public intervention to encourage innovation, the challenges of its effective evaluation are compounded by the higher ‘failure’ rate implied by many traditional performance measures. Social Return on Investment (SROI) is employed to assess the social innovation outcomes arising from implementation of Axes 1 and 3 of the 2007-13 Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE). Analysis of primary data gathered through structured face-to-face interviews from a weighted sample of 196 beneficiaries reveal that social innovation outcomes generate a total of £170.02 million of benefits from Axis 1 support measures, compared to £238.1 million of benefits generated from innovation outcomes from Axis 3 measures. Benefits are generated through four social innovation outcome categories: individual, operational, relational, and system; and range from changes in attitudes and behaviour to institutional change and new ways of structuring social relations. The paper calls for more comprehensive evaluation approaches that can capture, and value, the multiple benefits arising from social innovation, and further bespoke applications of SROI to help develop and legitimise innovation indicators that will enable stronger linkages back into the policy process.

This study aims to examine the social impact of a community-based enterprise model in Surabaya City. The analysis focuses on grass-root communities and highlights some technical challenges in order to develop a meta-theory with the intention of examining the underlying assumptions of the social return on investment. The social impact analysis is based on a social return on investment (SROI) approach, which involves community participation through focus group discussions. To avoid complexity, this study focuses on one year’s activities, which attributed monetary values to the social impact. It is argued in this study that the green and clean activities provide a return of 1.23 on the investment. This result demonstrates how the community-based social enterprise is feasible in achieving appropriate support. First, this study focuses on the community perspective during the observed time. The communities may experience different levels of capability and resources that contribute to the achievement of the programme. Secondly, there is a lack of literature that could provide financial analysis and there is no common accepted method for measuring the value of the social benefits. Beyond the SROI computation, this study highlights some technical challenges and misconceptions involved in measuring the social return on investment (SROI). Although there is considerable information available about the conceptual framework of SROI, there is great variability in how SROI is applied across interventions. This makes robust and consistent comparisons across social ventures difficult, while rendering the validity of SROI measures vulnerable to being contested.

Social Value Creation

This article aims to discuss how social impact and social value creation (SVC) happen in a social enterprise. It attempts to understand the efficacy of social innovation through the lens of different stakeholders within a social enterprise with special reference to the beneficiary and the social entrepreneur. The article uses a case study research method within qualitative research with the emphasis on intrinsic and instrumental case research. An inductive, interpretivist approach has been used for drawing propositions. Through six propositions, the article understands the phenomenon of social innovation, the barriers and bottlenecks in the same which ultimately has to lead to higher levels of social impact and SVC resulting in a win-win-win situation for all the stakeholders. The biggest limitation is that it is difficult to generalise the phenomenon occurring in case of this case research, which may be exactly replicated in other organisational settings/situations/circumstances. The case study has been developed after having taken permission directly from the founder and co-founders of the enterprise. Due permission had been sought from the social entrepreneur(s) before going ahead with the writing and construction of this research article.

A market paradigm shift towards a ‘knowledge-based economy’ means Australia is moving towards a major skills crisis whereby the workface will lack skills attainable from higher education. Moreover, those from low socio-economic backgrounds, and who are confronted with disadvantage, still face challenges in gaining entry to university. The Fast Forward Program (FFP) aims to increase attainment of higher education for X high school students in years 9–12, with a focus on dismantling the social barriers preventing attainment. To achieve this aim, the program hosts a range of student and parent in-school workshops and on-campus visits. To capture the social impact of the program for all participants, the social return on investment (SROI) methodology was implemented. The SROI ratio is represented as a return in dollar value for every dollar invested; due to the success of the program, the investment represented $5.73 for every $1 spent. The key findings indicated that students and parents gained a deeper familiarity and understanding of university which, in turn, created a deeper confidence and motivation for students to enter higher education. Additionally, participants reported being able to better use their time to cater for study, and were more comfortable about going onto a university campus.

The Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities carried out by companies should ideally be a social investment for them. The activities should not necessarily be aimed to meet their responsibilities since it would only bring a short-term good reputation and even potentially be a threat for them in the future. Indeed, as a social investment, the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities that are run for a long time will provide them with a business ‘change’ or ‘return’ in the form of profit for the company. The method used to measure the social impact of the CSR activities was Social Return on Investment (SROI) which not only could calculate the value of profits in the form of money, but included a broader concept covering social, economic and environmental values. The results of this study reveal that Sentra Industri Bukit Asam (SIBA) Batik Kujur Program that was initiated based on culture (history) has produced economic and business values for service users in the society. This resulted in a social investment impact value in the form of SROI Ratio of 5.39, which means that for every investment made by PTBA with Rp. 1,- they will get impact or benefit worth Rp. 5.39,-. Therefore, it can be seen from the social and economic values that the Sentra Industri Bukit Asam (SIBA) Batik Kujur Program is feasible and successful. Kegiatan corporate social responsibility (CSR) yang dilakukan perusahaan idealnya dilaksanakan sebagai sebuah investasi sosial, bukan sekedar kegiatan yang bersifat sementara untuk menunjukkan tanggung jawab saja, karena hal demikian hanya akan mendatangkan citra baik sesaat dan akan menjadi ancaman bagi perusahaan di kemudian hari. Sebagai sebuah investasi sosial, pelaksanaan kegiatan CSR dalam jangka panjang akan mendatangkan “kembalian” (return) bisnis berupa profit bagi perusahaan. Metode yang digunakan untuk mengukur dampak sosial dari kegitan CSR adalah dengan menggunakan social return on investment (SROI) yang tidak hanya menghitung nilai keuntungan berupa uang saja, melainkan mencakup konsep yang lebih luas yaitu meliputi nilai sosial, ekonomi dan juga lingkungan. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa Program Sentra Industri Bukit Asam (SIBA) Batik Kujur yang diinisiasi dengan berbasis pada budaya (sejarah) telah menghasilkan nilai ekonomi dan bisnis bagi masyarakat penerima program, yaitu menghasilkan nilai dampak investasi sosial berupa SROI Rasio sebesar 5,39 artinya bahwa setiap investasi yang dilakukan oleh PTBA sebesar Rp. 1,- memperoleh dampak atau manfaat senilai Rp. 5,39,-. Bila ditinjau dari sisi sosial dan ekonomi, maka program Sentra Industri Bukit Asam (SIBA) Batik Kujur dapat dikatakan layak dan berhasil.
