“…Emerging technology fields in the Health Care sector are identified by analyzing the growth momentum properties of M&A activities. First, the variables and decision models that are required for the analysis are adopted from Choi and Chang [59], as defined in Table 3. The decision models used to measure the M&A status are as follows:…”

The existing approaches to identification of emerging technologies create a prominent opportunity for technology convergence and market growth potential. However, existing approaches either suffer from the time lag issue or have yet to explorethe assessment’s uncertainty and ambiguity. Based on a total of 14 years of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity data in the Health Care sector, the complex patterns between growth velocity and accelerating of M&A activities are analyzed with two quantitative indicators (Promising Index and Promising Index Sharpe Ratio) to identify emerging technological opportunities. The proposed integrative approach offers a mean to resolve the time lag issue, deal with market trend irregularity, and manage expectations of investors for emerging technology and industry. Specifically, this study aims to (i) provide a decision support system integrating M&A activity information for strategic investment planning and (ii) identify promising technologies in the Healthcare sector to manage the irregularities of market trend and investment outcome. This study is one of the first research that employs a prior data-based approach to delineate emerging technologies by analyzing the growth momentum properties of specific industry areas based on the M&A activity data.

Purpose The purpose of this study of M&A in relation to sustainability aims to create synergies that drive both financial performance and positive environmental and social outcomes, aligning business objectives with broader societal goals. The study can help in understanding the structure, collaborations and recent keywords and topics that are related to M&A in relation to sustainability. Design/methodology/approach This study applies comprehensive bibliometric analysis on performance analysis and science mapping of the scholarly literature related to M&A in relation to sustainability published between 2004 and 2024 in 196 publications on Web of science and Scopus by leveraging biblioshiny within R Studio and the VOS viewer software for enhanced visualization and interpretation of the bibliometric data. Findings This study helps to find out the co-occurrence analysis, bibliographical coupling and keyword analysis. Moreover, it scrutinizes patterns of collaboration among researchers, institutions and nations, shedding light on the global reach and influence of scholarly contributions in the field of M&A in relation to sustainability. Practical implications This study identified trends can help scholars, policymakers and business experts to study M&A through the lens of sustainability. Social implications This bibliometric study of M&A in relation to sustainability can drive positive change by promoting responsible business practices, fostering innovation and creating value for both shareholders and society as a whole. Originality/value The paper concludes by finding emerging topics of the research and future directions, it gives a good input to extend the line on the graph. This study provides overview of 20 years of research on M&A in relation to sustainability and discusses its findings to identify the research gap.
