In Pakistan, social entrepreneurship is a growing sector with the potential to contribute to the country's socioeconomic well-being. Many social enterprises have been active in the community, delivering social values and addressing social and environmental issues. This paper offers an overview of social entrepreneurship as well as a preliminary assessment of the current state of the sector in Pakistan. This paper specifically examines the role of social entrepreneurship in advancing the country's socioeconomic development. Based on this analysis, it can be concluded that, while social entrepreneurship is still relatively new in Pakistan, various government and non-government organizations have begun to recognize the importance of social entrepreneurship activities to the country's social and economic development. Their involvement in various socioeconomic entrepreneurship activities has indirectly facilitated the country's socioeconomic development. It is hoped that social entrepreneurship will continue to thrive and grow in the country's future development.
