However, interestingly, Big Data analytical capabilities as a sequential mediator have significantly mediated the relation between organizational resilience and leapfrogging through digital literacy. This study advances dynamic capability theory by empirical testing of the proposed hypothesis. It highlights the big data analytical capability as a critical factor of leapfrogging, advancing practical and theoretical understanding of digital capabilities and resilience.

Building on and extending the Resource-Based View and bricolage theory, the paper argues that digital transformation reshapes the logic of resource strategy from ownership to orchestration in circular and inclusive economic models. Social ventures increasingly mobilize accessible, modular, and non-owned digital tools - ranging from no-code platforms and open data infrastructures to collaborative online networks - to achieve frugal yet scalable innovation and contribute to sustainable development and the circular economy. The DRL framework conceptualizes this process as a distinct resource logic that enhances entrepreneurial efficiency, innovation, legitimacy, and systemic economic inclusion in under-resourced contexts. The paper contributes to entrepreneurship and sustainable technology literature by integrating digital bricolage into a strategic model of resource configuration and by reframing digital resourcefulness as a dynamic capability supporting inclusive economic growth. Practical guidance is provided for entrepreneurs, educators, and policymakers seeking to align social innovation initiatives with the Sustainable Development Goals and circular economy principles. This study thus offers a digitally grounded roadmap for sustainable, inclusive, and economically transformative entrepreneurship in the twenty-first century.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101202,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Technology and Entrepreneurship","volume":"5 1","pages":"Article 100127"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145839721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using a robust methodological framework, a crisis-aware synchronization model was developed to detect real-time versus delayed investor alignment. A key novelty of the approach is the incorporation of time lags as a relevant factor influencing responses to systemic shocks. Results show that the technology sector exhibited statistically significant contemporaneous co-movement, consistent with its role as continuity-enabling digital infrastructure, whereas pharmaceutical sector demonstrated episodic, event-driven co-movement concentrated around vaccine and policy milestones. Notably, correlations during pandemic waves were not stronger than during inter-wave periods for either sector. These findings extend the Adaptive Markets Hypothesis by introducing a sector-contingent perspective: structural integrators (technology) stabilize expectations in real time, while event-contingent innovators (pharmaceuticals) generate punctuated alignment. For sustainable finance and entrepreneurship, the results suggest actionable levers: technology should be treated as a portfolio anchor and a policy priority for resilient digital infrastructure (measured in terms of uptime, scalability, energy efficiency), while pharmaceuticals should be considered a tactical complement, with innovation surges converted into durable capacity.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":101202,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Technology and Entrepreneurship","volume":"5 1","pages":"Article 100123"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145750063","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These findings provide evidence of the existence of some mutually exclusive aspects that could be improved in the regulation, offering significant implications for entrepreneurs about critical aspects of regulation.

Conversely, Remanufacturing-as-a-product (RaaP) emerges as a viable strategy for market expansion in developing economies, enabling access to affordable, high-quality and resource-efficient products.
