For this, depending on human capital and resource-based view, this study pays attention to the interaction effect of social entrepreneurs’ prior experiences and the partnership types of their social ventures on their social ventures’ performance. In the Korean context, social enterprises have another function to provide jobs and increase employment rates in a time of low economic growth and economic inequality. Given this situation, it is necessary that researchers investigate what human capitals of social entrepreneurs are helpful to obtain better social and commercial performance and what types of the partnership may have moderating effects on the relationship between the human capitals of social entrepreneurs and the social and commercial performance of social ventures.
