Abstract: In this article we explore the role of the private sector in the development of the social sphere. We analyze the impact of private companies in improving the availability and quality of social services such as health care, education, and social security. The contribution of business to solving social problems and improving the life of society as a whole is also considered. Based on modern research and practical examples, the author highlights the key aspects of successful interaction between the private sector and the social sphere.
