Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Entrepreneurship plays a central role in addressing complex economic, social and environmental challenges. At the same time, organizations are increasingly expected to develop innovative and sustainable management practices that create long term value for businesses and society. This Special Issue aims to advance theoretical and empirical research at the intersection of entrepreneurship, innovation and sustainable management. We welcome contributions that examine entrepreneurial processes, new venture creation, innovation management, entrepreneurial ecosystems, digital transformation, sustainability driven innovation, strategic management, entrepreneurial finance, public policy and organizational resilience. Studies employing quantitative, qualitative, mixed methods, experimental or review approaches are all encouraged. We particularly welcome interdisciplinary research that bridges entrepreneurship with sustainability, technology, public policy and organizational management. By bringing together diverse perspectives, this Special Issue seeks to deepen our understanding of how entrepreneurship and innovation contribute to sustainable organizations, industries and societies while generating actionable insights for researchers, practitioners and policymakers.
