Abstract
The commercialization of nonprofit institutions (NPIs) is a prominent theme in modern multidisciplinary studies. The trend towards nonprofit commercialization has increased significantly in recent years as more and more NPIs explore revenue generating opportunities. To examine nonprofit commercial revenues is thus of both theoretical relevance and practical importance around the world, including post-transitional countries. The aim of the paper is to determine the share and scope of nonprofit commercial revenues in the Czech Republic and to discuss their limitations. We try to show the true character of NPI funding sources based on the motives behind NPI entrepreneurial activities. The NPI funding sources are examined from a business perspective while emphasizing their “quasi” modalities. The paper concludes with suggestions for further research into the commercialization of NPIs in post-transitional countries.
