This paper presents a comprehensive framework for scaling social enterprises through the integration of sustainable financing, policy support, and market expansion strategies. Acknowledging the complex landscape in which social enterprises operate, the framework outlines the interconnected roles that finance, policy, and market access play in fostering sustainable growth. The model emphasizes the importance of adaptive financing mechanisms that align with the social mission of enterprises while ensuring long-term financial viability. Additionally, it explores how policy environments can be leveraged to create supportive ecosystems that facilitate social innovation and enhance scalability. The paper also discusses strategies for expanding market reach, emphasizing the need for collaborative partnerships, market diversification, and consumer education. By synthesizing these critical components, the proposed framework provides actionable insights for practitioners, policymakers, and investors aiming to enhance the scalability and impact of social enterprises globally.
