Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite contributions to our upcoming Special Issue titled “Innovative Approaches to Sustainable Governance Development and Strategy”. Sustainable governance is intricately connected to the evolution of enterprises and industries, as well as to overall socio-economic development. Aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the development and strategy for sustainable governance necessitate innovative methodologies for reinforcement. Given the urgency to expedite the realization of SDGs, this Special Issue focuses on exploring cutting-edge insights and transformative strategies for sustainable governance.
This Special Issue aims to serve as a collection of innovative ideas and groundbreaking research contributions that profoundly enhance the comprehension and enactment of sustainable governance practices within the framework of industrial growth and innovation. Our objective, through the amalgamation of empirical and theoretical work, is to illuminate how sustainability is incorporated into governance strategies across diverse sectors and how it is converted into implementable policies.
We welcome submissions of original research articles and reviews centered around the following keywords:
- Innovation and sustainable governance;
- Intellectual property and sustainable governance;
- Corporate sustainability strategies;
- Sustainable governance in the digital economy;
- Sustainable governance of emerging technologies;
- Sustainable industrialization.
We look forward to receiving your contributions and furthering the discourse on sustainable governance development and strategy.
