Abstract :
While social entrepreneurship has been acknowledged as critical to entrepreneurship development, there is perhaps a neglect of the communication imperative in social entrepreneurship and its basis for entrepreneurship development. It becomes possible to
dissect and build on a nuanced understanding of the tripod of social entrepreneurship, public sphere and entrepreneurship development. The main objective of this paper is to situate the value of the public sphere and how it contributes to entrepreneurship development. Anchored on the social capital and presence theories, the paper used literary analysis as method of data gathering and analysis.. The obvious finding of the paper is that the public sphere have the capacity to generate political, social and economic information to all segments of the societywhich can stimulate entrepreneurship. It recommends government and non- governmental development agencies should develop partnership with social bloggers to promote social entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship development.There is a need to organize workshops or training for small scale business owners to sensitize them about the place of the public sphere in their business development.
