摘要

本文旨在根据约旦公司的经验定性访谈,确定中小型企业(SME)寻求生态创新的角色中介,以及应用清洁生产作为一种减少环境污染的方法,同时为企业带来积极的经济效益。知识生产者(学术界)和知识使用者(产业界)之间缺乏伙伴关系是切实的,令人不满意的。这也对中小企业的创新竞争力产生了负面影响。中小企业可以通过与创新中介机构(即英国皇家科学学会(RSS)的水与环境中心(WEC))结盟,获取并受益于关键的外部知识。清洁生产CP被认为是一种方法和工具,可以识别公司在哪里以及为什么会以浪费和污染的形式损失资源,以及如何将这些损失降到最低。主要发现积极主动的方法(清洁生产)是触发中小企业生态创新的一个重要推动因素。这一发现表明,中小企业可能需要不同程度的支持来促进生态创新,并突出了中小企业生态创新的驱动因素和障碍。

Intermediaries motivating eco-innovation in Jordanian small and medium enterprises
This paper aims at identifying the role intermediaries in small medium-sized enterprises’ (SME) quest for eco-innovation according to an empirical qualitative interview among Jordanian companies as well as applied cleaner production as an a approach which reduces environmental pollution along with positive financial benefits for the enterprise. The lack of partnership between knowledge producers (academia) and knowledge users (industry) is tangible and unsatisfying. This also has negative impact on the innovation competitiveness of Small and medium enterprises SMEs. SMEs can access to and benefit from crucial external knowledge through alliance with innovation intermediaries, namely, the Water and Environment Centre (WEC) at the Royal Scientific Society (RSS). Cleaner Production CP is considered the method and tool to recognize where and why a company is losing resources in the form of waste and pollution, and how these losses can be minimized. The key finding that the proactive approach (cleaner production) is one essential push factor to trigger eco-innovations in SMEs. This finding indicates that SMEs might need facilitation for eco-innovation of different levels of support as well as, highlighting drivers and barriers for eco-innovation in SMEs.
