In modern conditions, the problem of progressive socio-economic development, which provides a real increase in quality of life as a key indicator of the country's development and its competitiveness in world markets, becomes one of the priorities for the country as a whole and for enterprises in particular. The task for innovative enterprises is to choose such an optimal business model that would allow them to make a profit and at the same time act for the benefit of society while enterprises adhere to the basic principles and directions of corporate social responsibility. Inclusive business models (business models of social entrepreneurship) can act as such a business model for innovative enterprises. The aim of the article was to study the logic of inclusive business formation based on corporate social responsibility and models of social entrepreneurship and to develop the main directions of inclusive development of innovative enterprises. Research has shown that inclusive business empowers people living in poverty by adapting their core business or part of their core business to their needs. The introduction of inclusive business models can help to quickly introduce elements of corporate social responsibility or compliance with social and environmental standards by the company and support the population at the bottom of the social pyramid. The existing inclusive business models are analyzed and classified according to six features: innovation; applicability; inclusion of vulnerable populations; profitability; obtaining social and environmental effects. Because all variants of inclusive business models are innovative for enterprises, it was appropriate to identify the main areas of inclusive development of their innovation activities by four main types of innovations in their areas of use: process, product, technology and complex. To eliminate the possible destructive consequences of innovations, their negative impact on the environment, inaccessibility to remote areas and to enable the inclusion of all segments of the population in the innovation process, we have outlined the range of social responsibility of innovators. Thus, the introduction of inclusive business models will allow all parties involved to benefit from each other. Achieved synergy between the state, business, and the population, will lead to sustainable solutions, innovation, competitive advantage, better reputation, expanding market share, etc. And inclusive business, because of a developed corporate culture based on elements of compliance and corporate social responsibility, will be an effective tool for socio-economic progress both at the state level and at the business level, which can improve the quality of life.
