The health care industry with its overburdening reliance on innovation, and patents, depends on medicinal ecological knowledge to derive eco-friendly products with minimum side effects from plants and other natural genetic resources. Most indigenous and local communities are situated in world’s most biological rich and diverse, areas with abundance in natural resources, however economically dis...

Eco-innovation has gained considerable attention in the academic and corporate world due to its potential mitigating a firm’s sustainability issues. Most previous studies focused on reactive approaches of eco-innovation using primary data. This study mitigates existing research gap by highlighting proactive secondary panel dataset. The prime objective this is investigate relationship between fi...

Purpose: Sustainability and the search for solutions that are both efficient and ecologically sound (eco-efficient) have become topics of great interest. However, companies seeking to develop supply chain solutions that are eco-efficient are often hampered by their ability to control the wider supply chain and they may need to draw upon external support from logistics service providers (LSPs). ...

New ventures that commercialize radical technologies tend to cluster in time. Funding for new ventures also ebbs and flows, often synchronous with significant innovations. We suggest that financial market activity is not purely a response to novel technologies but rather, financial markets drive innovation bubbles. We show that financing risk is inherent to the funding of new ventures, but vari...

In the paper, a theoretical framework that combines multidimensional conceptualization of dynamic capabilities (sensing, seizing, and reconfiguring) with two leadership styles (transactional transformational) types eco-innovation (incremental radical) was developed empirically tested. The purpose this study is to answer key question: how different influence potential generate ecological changes...

This paper is based on empirical research on a taxonomy of technological environmental innovations. It draws on a databank with over 500 examples of new technologies (materials, products, processes and practices) which come with benign environmental effects. The approaches applied to interpreting the datasets are innovation life cycle analysis, and product chain analysis. Main results include t...
