Then, because in the emerging economy, formal institutional environments such as the rule of law greatly influence a firm's strategic decisions and performance, we propose a contingency framework of the impact of mandatory corporate social responsibility investment on a firm's overall performance, i.e., firm-specific advantages, financial outcome, and competitive advantage. In this way, we also explore how corporate social responsibility implementing intermediary agencies’ mediating role with third-party contractual terms will moderate the relationship between the focal firm's social investment agendas and performance. In so doing, the study contributes to and advances understanding of the institution-based perspective on the relationship between the focal firm's mandatory social investment and performance in emerging economies and brings the institution-based view into the mainstream of corporate social responsibility literature. Taken together, the novelty of our work is to study the association between sustainable social agendas and firm-specific and competitive advantages, as well as the mediating role of registered social intermediary agencies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101202,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Technology and Entrepreneurship","volume":"1 3","pages":"Article 100023"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2773032822000232/pdfft?md5=b4df438db43c0f47b91b1043a54d2dfb&pid=1-s2.0-S2773032822000232-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77046596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This dissimilarity between sustainability intentions determines the strategic choice of materiality setting adopted when disclosing non-standardized (i.e. non-financial) data to the public in order to reach unbiased sustainability decisions. Inherently, non-standardized data is contextually specific and dynamic, especially in the technology innovation and venturing contexts. Materiality should have rationality and detailed characterization; as such, highly visible sustainability values and concomitant challenges can be addressed thoroughly. Based on institutional and social psychology perspectives, this study proposes a materiality characterization model that connects four thematic dimensions: reflexivity, proximity/immediacy, centrality, and materiality morality. The materiality characterization model helps to determine materiality contents and disclose collective sustainability interests in technology advancement and entrepreneurship. To investigate this connection, we conducted industrial interviews in over 13 technology-innovation and technology-venturing cases, and we applied a recursive induction analysis to make conclusions based on the findings. The results indicate the importance of sustainability materiality for social dialogues – a bottom-up social governance for technology advancement. In conclusion, we affirm that the characterization model acts as a meta-technology to propel sustainable innovation and venturing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":101202,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Technology and Entrepreneurship","volume":"1 3","pages":"Article 100024"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2773032822000244/pdfft?md5=b4a6d0f462488002228701bef73e31e8&pid=1-s2.0-S2773032822000244-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86746371","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We study a subset of these blue entrepreneurs focused on marine plastic pollution mitigation, since little is known about the business models deployed and their associated drivers and barriers in this emerging industry. We utilize a multiple case study approach to analyze the business models of 96 startups working to manage marine plastic and identify four business model categories: 1) consumer targeted solutions, 2) government and business solutions, 3) companies focused on value chain development, and 4) startups that generate revenue to fund plastic waste recovery. These four BMs differ in how they create environmental benefits, as well as their economic value capture or revenue models. We then conducted 19 interviews with entrepreneurs (20% of the sample) and six experts to understand the conditions that support or hinder business model development. We find that entrepreneurial challenges and motivations associated with starting a new business are experienced by all companies, regardless of the business model chosen. Other relevant drivers include the availability of financing early on in business development, a supportive culture and positive and constructive market response. Challenges include competition from less sustainable businesses that may negatively influence the legitimacy of the industry, as well as slow government responses.

This study reported the upgradation of the e-waste policies, e.g., the Factory Act, 1965 to Hazardous Waste (e-waste) Management, 2021 of the government of Bangladesh (GoB). A field survey was conducted for an in-depth understanding of the current scenario of e-waste management in Dhaka and Chittagong and total e-waste streamflow has been presented.

The recycling process has been discussed, and recommendation has been pointed out for Bangladesh. Based on the study, printed circuit boards (PCBs)-based metal recovery business model from mobiles and computers worth $1 billion/yr by 2030 has been proposed.

So far, however, the literature on business models from a sector coupling perspective is scarce yet strongly emerging. To address the identified research gaps and enhance the current knowledge on the emerging hydrogen vehicle industry and sector coupling, this study adopts a qualitative and exploratory research approach and builds on information gained in 103 semi-structured interviews to discuss emerging business models in Germany.

Anchoring business model theory to the concept of sector coupling, this study identifies 12 business model archetypes in the emerging hydrogen vehicle industry and its value chain. It can be shown that, while the market is still emerging and the market players are not defined and are evolving, companies are currently engaged in finding their position along the value chain, fostering vertical integration, and promoting cooperation between the different sectors.
