Social entrepreneurs are perceived as creative innovators, who combine commerce and social issues in a way that improves the life of people connected to the issue. The COVID pandemic is having a very detrimental effect on the communities and the social entrepreneurs from various parts of the world have emerged as a support system for the government and the COVID warriors of their respective countries. The authors have selected different case studies from India and Hong Kong to explore the role of social entrepreneurs during COVID19. The case studies depict various initiatives to help the needy and affected due to the pandemic.
