To address this challenge, this study examines the significance of business sustainability for startups across the three pillars of the triple bottom line framework: economic, social, and environmental sustainability. Specifically, it investigates the influence of entrepreneurial orientation, market orientation, and entrepreneurial network on flow experience, entrepreneurial satisfaction, and innovative performance as pathways toward a holistic startup sustainability. A theoretical model integrating these constructs was empirically validated using Partial Least Squares - Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM), with data drawn across the 17 administrative regions of the Philippines. The findings reveal that entrepreneurial orientation significantly influences flow experience and innovative performance, while market orientation demonstrated no significant relationships with other constructs. Entrepreneurial network has a significant relationship among flow experience, entrepreneurial satisfaction, and innovative performance. Flow experience is found to positively influence entrepreneurial satisfaction and negatively influence social sustainability, whereas entrepreneurial satisfaction is associated with economic sustainability. Notably, innovative performance emerges as the most comprehensive driver of business sustainability, exhibiting positive relationships with all three dimensions of the triple bottom line. These results position innovative performance as a key variable for startup sustainability in developing-country contexts. The findings offer actionable insights for entrepreneurs, policymakers, and startup ecosystem builders, particularly in informing the design of sustainability initiatives and responsive policy instruments. More importantly, policymakers need to invest in innovation-enabling infrastructure, entrepreneurial education, and orientation-building programs that cultivate the internal capacities of startups. Future research is encouraged to explore government support initiatives, cross-country comparisons, sector-specific analyses, and additional constructs.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"12 2","pages":"Article 100802"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148167897","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}

The analysis uses a panel dataset covering 109 countries over the period 2010–2023, drawing on data from the World Bank, Our World in Data, and the Global Footprint Network. Environmental outcomes are measured using three indicators including ecological footprint, CO₂ emissions, and total greenhouse gas emissions. A two-way fixed effects model (TWFE) controls for unobserved country heterogeneity and common time shocks. An event-study approach captures dynamic treatment effects and anticipation behaviors. Results reveal significant heterogeneity in instrument effectiveness. Carbon taxes consistently deliver statistically significant and economically meaningful reductions in ecological footprint and CO₂ emissions, with effects emerging gradually and partially anticipated pre-implementation. By contrast, ETS has more limited and targeted effects: it mainly reduces total greenhouse gas emissions, while its effects on broader ecological pressure are weak or statistically insignificant. Both instruments' efficacy is heavily influenced by institutional quality where higher government effectiveness and democratic accountability amplify environmental benefits. No strong evidence supports additional gains from combining carbon tax and ETS beyond carbon tax. By highlighting the uneven performance of ETS relative to the broader effectiveness of carbon taxes, the study provides new insights for the design of green fiscal policy in both developed and emerging economies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"12 2","pages":"Article 100796"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148168024","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}

Addressing these challenges is critical for enhancing the sustainable performance of reverse logistics. The study investigates the sustainable performance of reverse logistics (SPoRL) within Indonesia's food industry, focusing on the roles of supply chain accessibility (SCA) and supply chain collaboration (SCC). Drawing on the supply chain practice view (SCPV) and contingency theory (CT), the study examines how SCA and SCC contribute to SPoRL and whether SCC moderates the relationship between SCA and SPoRL. Structured questionnaires were distributed to food and beverage companies listed in the directory of Indonesia Manufacturing Industry 2022 and only 392 companies responded. A partial least squares-structural equation modeling technique is employed to assess the main and moderating effects of the SCA and SCC. The findings exhibit that SCA and SCC significantly directly impact SPoRL, highlighting the importance of accessible supply chain information and collaborative practices in achieving sustainability goals. However, SCC fails to demonstrate a moderating effect on the SCA–SPoRL relationship. The results contribute theoretical insights into the interrelations among SCA, SCC, and SPoRL while offering practical guidance for managers to align internal and external supply chain operations effectively. The studied model explains only 55.8% of the variance in SPoRL. Hence, future research is recommended to refine the framework by exploring alternative moderators, incorporating additional variables, or employing mediation analysis to enhance explanatory power.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"12 2","pages":"Article 100800"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148167896","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}

Grounded on the case study of the UAE, looking at design-out-waste strategies, this research employs a qualitative methodology, based on 14 semi-structured interviews with professionals from the field of construction. The results show that the main causes of waste during design stage are found to be complex projects, harsh climate, logistics deficiencies and low usage of advanced technology. The most recent strategies include adherence to green building regulations, use of passive design techniques, and better resource management. Emerging technologies, including Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), offer the potential to predict and mitigate design waste; however, their use is still limited. This problem may be attributed to insufficient knowledge, high costs, and the propensity to avoid change. One of the most important conclusions of the study is that the bolstering of stakeholder collaboration and governance frameworks is necessary to make the adoption of sustainable design practices in the construction industry of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) a reality. The main contribution of this research is the evidence-based identification of several waste drivers within the design phase, as well as the construction of viable, technologically supported frameworks to promote sustainable construction approaches. In summary, the results of the research indicate that waste within the design phase can be minimized, and the practice of sustainable construction in the UAE can be advanced through the proactive incorporation of digital technologies and engaged collaboration among stakeholders.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"12 1","pages":"Article 100730"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146077361","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}

Combining insights from the literature on sustainable business models and business model dynamics, our study proposed a comprehensive sustainable dynamic business model framework. The proposed framework takes into account the main elements of a sustainable business model and present the mechanisms that drive different sustainability-oriented values, and how their values change and are influenced by internal and external factors during the company development process. The framework is applied in multiple-case analysis of different PV companies in China. The application of the framework shows that it is able to present the mechanisms that drive different sustainability-oriented values and to capture business model dynamics in a comprehensive way and that it allows for case study comparison.

However, the uneven SDGs progress across countries have raised fundamental questions regarding the underlying factors influencing these disparities. This study aims to examine the role of innovation dynamics in explaining the variation in national performance concerning the SDGs. To this end, it operationalizes the conceptual framework of the Triple Helix model of innovation, which identifies the dynamic interaction among three key institutions (universities, government, and industry)as the driving force behind innovation processes. After reviewing the theoretical literature on innovation dynamics and addressing conceptual challenges in existing studies, this research provides a clear and practical definition of the concept, making it suitable for statistical analysis. Building on the theoretical underpinnings of the Triple Helix model, this study evaluates how institutional interaction influences countries’ SDG performance during 2019 and 2024. To test the main hypothesis, four hierarchical regression models were developed. The dependent variable was the variance in sustainable development performance across countries during the specified period, while the independent variables included standardized performance scores of governments, industry, and academia, as well as indicators of bilateral and trilateral institutional interactions. These were analyzed while controlling for economic, political, cultural, and natural conditions. The results reveal that trilateral collaboration among universities, industry, and government has a highly significant and positive impact on sustainable development performance, whereas the isolated effects of individual institutions were limited or statistically insignificant. In addition, bilateral government–industry collaboration showed an independently significant contribution. The findings underscore that innovation dynamics and the structure of institutional interaction play a critical role in determining national success in achieving SDGs. This study offers a structured framework for evaluating institutional collaboration at the national level, and highlights the Triple Helix model as a key framework for sustainable development policymaking.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16678,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Open Innovation: Technology, Market, and Complexity","volume":"12 1","pages":"Article 100705"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145837392","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}
