While not exactly a non profit, we are a 'social enterprise' based in India - i.e. our main focus is solving a particular issue rather than profits. We are registered as a for profit. However, it looks like we have literally the worst of both worlds. Investors tell us that we look like a non profit to them, while funding bodies tell us we are ineligible for grants.
Is the answer also registering a non profit organization as well? Is this ethical?
