“…This evolving landscape demands innovative approaches that harmonise development with ecological sustainability. Eco-innovation stands out as a crucial strategy, combining inventive solutions with environmental stewardship to mitigate the adverse effects of urban expansion and establish cities as vanguards of sustainable progress (Yousaf, 2021;Peyravi et al, 2023;Kemp & Pearson, 2007). The dialogue on urban dynamics and eco-innovation has grown increasingly significant, underscoring its potential to guide urban development towards achieving environmental goals (Abubakar & Alshammari, 2023).…”

This research explores the adaptability and efficacy of the OECD eco-innovation framework in guiding sustainable urban development within emerging urban centres, mainly through Neom, Saudi Arabia. It seeks to elucidate the framework's potential in facilitating eco-innovation in urban planning, contributing to the broader discourse on sustainable urban development. Employing a qualitative research design, the study engages with a cohort of experts through structured interviews, complemented by a thematic analysis of these discussions. This approach allows for an in-depth exploration of the application and impact of the OECD eco-innovation framework on Neom’s urban planning and development strategies. The study also incorporates a systematic review of relevant documents to understand further the integration of eco-innovative practices in Neom's planning processes. The findings highlight the critical role of the OECD eco-innovation framework in driving eco-innovation within Neom’s urban development. Key insights include the importance of financial incentives, regulatory frameworks, market mechanisms, and knowledge exchange in fostering urban eco-innovation. Additionally, the research emphasises the need for multisectoral collaborations and data-driven strategies to effectively integrate eco-innovation into urban development, underscoring the transformative potential of Neom as a model for sustainable urban planning. This study contributes original insights into utilising the OECD eco-innovation framework in emerging urban developments, explicitly focusing on Neom, Saudi Arabia. It enriches the sustainable urban development literature by demonstrating the framework's adaptability and relevance, offering valuable implications for policymakers, urban planners, and researchers. The research underscores the necessity of tailoring international frameworks to local contexts, enhancing their practical applicability and impact in promoting sustainable urban ecosystems.

“…We chose the adoption of emerging technologies as a variable for analyzing our work because SEs widely use them and they are a possible way to deal with social issues. Technology and innovation are crucial to employment growth, social welfare, sustainable growth and quality of life [75]. Furthermore, entrepreneurs contribute to social innovation by applying technology to their businesses.…”

Social impact investing and social entrepreneurship have great potential for solving global problems. However, practitioners and researchers know little about the entrepreneurial process and the investors’ criteria. Therefore, we identify the determinants of access to external finance for social enterprises in an emerging economy using a quantitative approach in a large sample (N = 601). We found that impact sector, business model, entrepreneurial support, development stage, and the adoption of technologies impact access to finance by social enterprises. We also show that green technologies have greater funding access than other enterprises and that social impact investors are more aware of environmental issues and less concerned with financial returns. To raise more funding, we suggest that social entrepreneurs include environmental issues in their business, quickly validate their idea, add an intermediary company between the enterprise and the consumer, seek the support of incubators or accelerators, and adopt emerging technologies in the product or service offered.

“…Increased energy production, transportation and greenhouse gas emissions have caused signi cant damage to the Earth's ecosystem, posing a global problem (Peyravi et al 2023; Wang and Yang 2021; El-Kassar and Singh 2019). As a result, environmental degradation has been a major challenge worldwide (Ullah et al 2021a).…”

What is the significance of understanding the determinant factors and motivations behind a firm’s decision to adopt green innovations, identifying the sources of barriers and what are the outcomes of such adoption? How do the findings from the literature review help to define the conceptual framework for green innovation adoption (GIA)? What are the future research trends? To address these research questions, a systematic literature review (SLR) was conducted. After defining inclusion and exclusion search criteria, a systematic search of peer-reviewed articles from the Web of Science (WoS) and Scopus databases was conducted. The search database contained 84 papers, of which 42 met the specific analysis goals of this study using the InOrdinatio method. The results indicated a growing interest in green innovation, with 78.57% of papers published between 2015 and 2022. Top research countries include Pakistan, the EU, China, the USA and Malaysia. Quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods were used in selecting the papers, which highlight leading firms as protagonists in developing new technologies. This research aims to promote internal factors that firms can manage, rather than complying with external factors beyond their control. Based on the SLR, this paper proposes a proposition and a conceptual model for further research on GIA. This study offers a novel framework and understanding for researchers to explore the antecedents and consequences of GIA by enterprises. Based on the identified literature gaps, promising avenues for future research were proposed.
