This study aims to empirically analyze the factors affecting the revitalization of social enterprises, which are attracting attention as a policy for job creation and regional revitalization, focusing on the administrative district of Seoul. Literature review on social enterprise revitalization focus on the increase and decrease of the number of revitalized social enterprises, and no empirical analysis has been attempted to distinguish between facilitating and generating factors. In this study, We classify social enterprises into administrative districts of Seoul and analyze the activation factors into facilitating and generating factors. As a result, the following factors were derived. First, in areas where social enterprises exist in existing communities, the higher the proportion of beneficiary of national basic livelihood, cooperatives, and intermediary organization, the more conditions for social enterprise activation are established. Second, in areas where social enterprises do not exist in existing communities, the lower the proportion of elderly and disabled people, the higher the proportion of beneficiary of national basic livelihood, and the higher the number of cooperatives and intermediary organization, the more likely it is that social enterprises can be activated. This study reveals that policy support tailored to each community's situation is important for social enterprise revitalization, and aims to contribute to the formation of social enterprise-related policies tailored to local conditions by distinguishing between facilitating and generating factors.
