Abstract
We are contemporary with various financial crises of global magnitude, starting with the Great Depression of 2008-2009, so-called the "subprime crisis", the economic crisis generated by the COVID 19 pandemic, but also the one that is ongoing nowadays, caused by the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. All these extreme situations generate reactions of the most diverse and challenging to delimit and predict so that the economic entities must show permanent resilience to recover quickly and emerge victorious from the fight with the disturbing phenomena. The present study attempted an x-ray of the Romanian economy after the first year of the COVID pandemic, the most difficult year when the restrictions were among the most severe, analyzing at the same time the years before the beginning of the pandemic for an accurate picture. At the same time, we tried to answer the questions of why a company is more resilient than others using a sample of the top 100 companies in Romania, analyzing the impact on revenue growth of 13 indicators grouped in 4 classes, namely Business efficiency, Sustainable Profitability, Financial Stability, Business dynamics & stability. The obtained results may have significan economic policy implications.

ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND SUSTAINABILITY ISSUES ISSN 2345-0282 (online) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, serving as a platform to foster multi/interdisciplinary innovations that bring together the research communities and the end-users being affected. It is where theory meets practice, evident in the authors being experts across the industrial value chain – including business visionaries, regulatory and standards bodies, and especially pan-European networking through public and private sector partnerships (PPPs). Accepted papers present outcomes of initiatives and findings across all fields of science and technology, especially social sciences and humanities. Multi/interdisciplinary approach is encouraged. Recent additions to the already well-accomplished editorial board includes experts from the energy and information and communication technologies (ICT) sectors, particularly focused on advances to the state of the arts in environmental sustainability developments. This journal publishes original research papers that are rich with case studies of modern demonstrations, presenting innovative solutions to socio-economic and socio-technical problems that plague modern societies. It is a journal that is positioned as collaborative platform where theory meets practice, which is accomplished by publishing authors who’ve uncovered new linkages between data formulation and the underpinning theories, cases, observations, and validated hypotheses arising from the analysis of that data. ESI journal scope includes as well a particular focus on the business development side of smart electricity grids regarding financial or innovative technological aspects surrounding: renewable production, energy storage and management, construction materials, retrofitting, urban planning, and the trading of actors within emerging markets affected by energy supply and demand tradeoff.
