“…However, local firms have little incentive to undertake green innovation activities due to the externalities of environmental behavior [11][12][13]. On the one hand, local enterprises pay no cost for the extraction of natural resources; on the other hand, the benefits of environmental management and green innovation undertaken by local enterprises are shared by all economic parties, while the costs are borne alone [14].…”

Green innovation is vital for manufacturing enterprises to achieve a balance between economic, environmental and social benefits. This paper empirically investigates the mechanisms of government subsidies, R&D investment and public participatory environmental regulation on green innovation in manufacturing enterprises, selecting a sample of 1308 manufacturing firms listed on Chinese A-shares from 2010–2019. The results show that government subsidies can significantly promote green innovation in manufacturing enterprises, with private enterprises being more pronounced. R&D investment plays a mediating role in green innovation in manufacturing enterprises, while public participatory environmental regulation has a negative impact. The moderating effect of public participatory environmental regulation on government subsidies is different on different green patents, with a more negative effect on green invention patents than on green utility model patents. Public participatory environmental regulation has a negative moderating effect on the green innovation of state-owned manufacturing enterprises while having no significant effect on private manufacturing enterprises.

“…Previous studies indicated inconsistent findings on the business ties-innovation relationship. For instance, business ties positively affect multiple innovation facets, including green ( Zhang and Wang, 2022 ), process ( Shu et al, 2012 ), and product ( Wu, 2011 ; Shu et al, 2012 ; Sami et al, 2019 ). Others include radical ( Shen et al, 2019 ), exploitative ( Wu and Peng, 2020 ), exploratory ( Su and Yang, 2018 ), and firm (process and product).…”

“…Nevertheless, it does not affect product ( Sami et al, 2019 ), exploitative ( Wu and Peng, 2020 ), or exploratory innovations ( Su and Yang, 2018 ). Accordingly, the concept exhibited an inverted U-shaped effect on green ( Zhang and Wang, 2022 ) and product innovations ( Wu, 2011 ). Furthermore, Gao et al (2017) concluded with a U-shaped effect of political ties on product innovation.…”

This study aimed to examine the integrated relationships of business ties, political ties, sustainable leadership, and frugal innovation. The correlation was assessed with the consideration of social network and situational leadership theories. Data was collected from 363 Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) employees in Pakistan with a response rate of 72.60%. Accordingly, the Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) was employed to examine the validity of the proposed hypotheses. Empirical findings confirmed the significant impact of managerial and business ties on frugal innovation, strengthened by sustainable leadership. However, data analysis negated the positive impact of political ties on frugal innovation, which remains non-significant with the introduction of sustainable leadership among Pakistani SMEs. Hence, future studies are recommended to explore other conditional factors and mediating mechanisms in the relationship between managerial ties and frugal innovation. This idea can bring a deeper insight into the vital role of networking. To the best of the author’s knowledge, no prior study is available about the integrated relationships of managerial ties, frugal innovation, and sustainable leadership. This study enriches the literature in innovation management, especially concerning the social network and situational leadership model.

“…Wang et al [47] found through their analysis of Chinese construction companies that the political affiliation of enterprises has a significant positive impact on green innovation. Zhang and Wang [48] found that corporate political ties have an inverted U-shaped relationship with green innovation.…”

At present, social capital is considered to be one of the important reasons for promoting economic development and causing regional economic differences, but in the existing research, there is little literature on the impact of regional social capital on enterprises’ green innovation behavior and green total factor productivity (GTFP), so this paper aims to enrich the research in this area. This paper builds a regional social capital evaluation index system and uses the super-SBM model to measure the enterprise GTFP. Then, this paper brings regional social capital, enterprise green innovation and GTFP into a unified framework for the first time and further reveals the quantitative relationship between the three by using OLS and Tobit two-step methods based on the panel data of 30 provinces from 2011 to 2019. The results show that regional social capital has a positive effect on enterprise GTFP and green innovation (except for strategic green innovation output), enterprise green innovation output has a positive role in promoting GTFP, and enterprise green innovation capital investment has a masking effect between regional social capital and GTFP. Furthermore, the expansive study finds that there are differences in the impact of regional social capital on green innovation and the GTFP of heterogeneous enterprises, and financing constraints have a positive regulatory effect on the relationship between regional social capital and the GTFP of state-owned enterprises, while having an inhibitory effect on the GTFP of private enterprises. Fiscal decentralization has a partial mediating effect between regional social capital and enterprise GTFP, while urbanization and CO2 emissions have a masking effect. Additionally, this paper aims to provide a reference for the improvement of regional social capital theory, the strategic choice of green innovation of enterprises, and the high-quality development of the economy.
