This study brings together these two strands of theoretical analysis and focuses on the case of The Hub, an international network of incubators for social innovation and social entrepreneurship. Looking at the role played by its internal hosts as knowledge-management facilitators and creators of communities of practice, the study will assess how The Hub is adopting a networked approach to social enterprise incubation and thus embodying critical success factors in its ability to trigger innovation processes.[Authors' abstract].
