Social entrepreneurs convert social affairs into opportunities, create businesses, and transform entrepreneurial experience into entrepreneurial knowledge. Thus, the understanding of the social entrepreneur’s formation as a generator of social transformation is relevant. From this context, the general objective is to understand how the process of formation of the social entrepreneur occurs. To do this, a qualitative research was carried out and the research method involved the analysis of three life story narratives of entrepreneurs considered a reference in the development of social projects of impact in Brazil, according to the Social Entrepreneur Award conducted by the Folha de São Paulo newspaper and the Schwab Foundation. For the organization of the analysis, the ATLAS software was used. The results showed that the formation of the social entrepreneur is linked to the spaces and contexts of learning, the leadership trajectory and the motivation for social entrepreneurship, and these categories are permeated by formal and non-formal education.

Palabras clave : Social entrepreneur; Formal and non-formal education; Life’s history.
