“…In the cluster analysis presented in this paper, only quantitative data were used. This could be well accompanied with a further, in-depth literature review [45] of the results of a country classification according to their level of tourism growth during the period 2007-2016 [34]. This investigation showed that Visegrad countries were among the LTG cluster (low tourism growth) based on factor analysis.…”

The impact of tourism on quality of life standards in regions is significant in terms of people, planet, and profit. This paper examines the subnational NUTS 2 level regions, (in line with Eurostat) by applying several interlinked and connected indicators. Adopting the three Ps (people, planet, profit) of the Sustainability Services Marketing Mix, this article discusses the fusion of 54 regions of Central and Eastern Europe (Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Poland, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Slovenia, Romania, and Bulgaria) into clusters according to the selected accommodation tourism indicators used by the European Statistical Agency (Eurostat) to evaluate tourism. Since many variables of the Prague region significantly exceed the values of the remaining regions, this region has been considered as an individual cluster, excluded from the cluster analysis. The cluster analysis resulted in the definition of six clusters consisting of regions with similar indicators’ statistics characteristics. The presented approach changes the traditional approach to clusters in tourism and provokes thinking about new criteria of clustering and solutions in the field of tourism, especially when considering future cooperation, competitiveness, and sustainable development.

“…It is essential for SMEs to begin the transition towards a sustainable 4S, introducing "purpose" [57,84,85] into their strategic management line, demonstrating economic, social and environmental results through measurement, transparency and, where appropriate, certification. SMEs need to create business leaders and references that serve as examples and lead the way and form networks in which they join efforts and resources can create prosperity and wellbeing, and also to be more effective in their message.…”

Rethinking 21st-Century Businesses: An Approach to Fourth Sector SMEs in Their Transition to a Sustainable Model Committed to SDGs

2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

With barely ten years remaining to reach the goals included in the United Nations 2030 Agenda (UN2030A), there is still no agreed-upon universal criterion regarding how businesses can move firmly forward to achieve them. A significant number of laudable initiatives have emerged and been consolidated internationally, highlighting the need to change the outdated mainstream economic model based on continuous growth—whose maximum exponent is the macroeconomic magnitude “Gross Domestic Product” (GDP)—to another sustainable model which considers the ecological "people and planet-centered" oriented limits, prioritizing individual wellbeing and social prosperity, in line with the UN2030A. Facing the prevalent resistance to change, some innovative small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are consciously addressing the transition on their own, but not without difficulties. The purpose of this article was to fill the gap in the social sciences literature by conducting in-depth interviews with Fourth Sector (4S) entrepreneurs, business leaders from purpose-driven companies, and academics, in order to approach and look into their perspective about the role that 4S SMEs are being called to execute to advance toward 2030. The two main contributions of this article are (1) 4S SMEs identify an urgent need to modify the current economic model with metrics aligned with UN2030A and (2) it is essential to assemble and build an “Engagement Ecosystem” through a systemic thinking approach to allow 4S SMEs to make real contributions to the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

“…Two other categories of articles that together constituted another 21% of our database were SBM component frameworks and SBM-specific archetypes. The first refers to all articles in which the authors, starting from Osterwalder et al's (2010) business model canvas, proposed new canvas models or other visual representations focusing mainly on the composition of SBMs, including value proposition, value creation, value distribution and value capture (Biloslavo et al, 2018;Joyce & Paquin, 2016;Morioka et al, 2018). The SBM-specific archetypes category includes all articles focusing on specific types of SBM, including social business models, product service systems, sharing platforms, bottom-of-the-pyramid models or collaborative consumption BMs (Bittencourt Marconatto, Barin-Cruz, Pozzebon & Poitras, 2016;Dobson, Boone, Andries & Daou, 2018;Dreyer, B., Lüdeke-Freund, Hamann, & Faccer, 2017;Yang, Evans, Vladimirova, & Rana, 2017).…”

“…After presenting a new ontology of BMs, Upward and Jones (2016) proposed the strongly sustainable business model canvas (Kurucz, Colbert, Lüdeke-Freund, Upward, & Willard, 2017), later renamed the flourishing business model canvas (Hoveskog, Halila, Mattsson, Upward, & Karlsson, 2018), which is a model that creates, delivers and retains positive economic, social and environmental value for all respective stakeholders through its value network, thus fostering the possibility for human and non-human life to flourish indefinitely on the planet (Ehrenfeld, 2000). Other recently proposed canvasses and tools include the value triangle framework (Biloslavo, Bagnoli, & Edgar, 2018) and the sustainable value exchange matrix (Morioka, Bolis, Monteiro, & Carvalho, 2018). With respect to empirical studies, the literature mainly presents qualitative analyses of case studies (Dentchev et al, 2018) with the aim of presenting state-of-the-art and best practices of pioneer SBM organisations.…”

Literature on sustainable business models (SBM) has recently emerged and is rapidly expanding. This promising research field is aimed at intersecting traditional business model approaches with corporate sustainability. Most of the research to date has focused on existing case studies or examples of sustainability innovations in business models or on the use of frameworks and tools to categorise or design SBMs or suggest the stages of this innovative process towards sustainability. This article presents an integrative literature review aimed at describing the objective aspects of the SBM literature such as its temporal, industrial, geographical and methodological factors. As well as this descriptive analysis, the paper categorises the SBM literature in terms of its main purposes and themes. This categorisation is aimed at synthesising the main contributions of the SBM literature and to highlight gaps to suggest possible further developments. Despite presenting different perspectives on value (proposition, creation, delivery and capture), the current research on SBM has failed to take a holistic approach towards sustainable value measurement and representation in its models and frameworks.
