Researchers at the Alexander von Humboldt Institute for Internet and Society (HIIG), led by CSS-Member Dr. Ali Aslan Gümüsay, have studied how entrepreneurs use artificial intelligence (AI) to help tackle social problems. In a new study, they point to the organisational uniqueness of start-ups and how they act as a bridge between different communities of interest in areas such as inclusion, healthcare or climate protection. In addition, they show the benefits of social entrepreneurship but also the potential risks.

You can read the study here.
