The emergence of the sharing economy has fundamentally transformed conventional company structures, presenting novel prospects for entrepreneurs and questioning existing conventions across diverse industries. This study offers an extensive examination of entrepreneurship within the sharing economy, delving into various company models and scrutinising its societal ramifications. The sharing economy, which involves peer-to-peer transactions mediated by internet platforms, has seen the rise of new entrepreneurial businesses. This paper explores the diverse and complex nature of sharing economy business models, encompassing various platforms such as ride-sharing, accommodation-sharing, asset-sharing, and skill-sharing. A thorough examination of each model to explore the fundamental concepts, operational processes, and crucial aspects that contribute to entrepreneurial success in this rapidly changing environment is being explored. This study examines the impact of different business models on consumer behaviour, market dynamics, and social developments. The assessment examines the good and negative outcomes, taking into account factors such as improved efficiency in resource utilization, economic empowerment of individuals, and potential difficulties linked to regulatory issues, labor rights, and market competitiveness. This paper focuses on the essential role of technology and digital platforms in promoting entrepreneurship within the sharing economy. Through an analysis of the impact of digitalization on market accessibility, trust mechanisms, and scalability, the role of technology as a driver for entrepreneurial innovation and expansion is emphasized. Additionally, it analyses the impact of regulatory frameworks on entrepreneurial activity, investigating the difficult balance between stimulating innovation and maintaining consumer protection, fair competition, and social equality. In conclusion, this research gives useful insights into the entrepreneurial environment of the sharing economy, presenting a comprehensive knowledge of diverse business models and their societal implications. By putting light on both opportunities and problems, thereby contributing to the current conversation on the role of entrepreneurship in determining the future of the sharing economy and its consequences for society at large.

In most developing nations, such as Ghana, SMEs provide a significant portion of the GDP to ensure economic growth, employment, income stability, and poverty alleviation. Despite the aforementioned duties, most of these SMEs are currently failing as a consequence of poor performance. By this, the study investigates accountants’ competence and independence in delivering accounting services to small and medium-sized organisations as a method of sustaining their vitality and allowing them to play the expected crucial roles as the engine of growth in the country’s economic development. The study delivered questionnaires to a sample of eight hundred and seven (807) employees who were selected using the purposive sampling technique from the targeted demographic. The descriptive and inferential quantitative techniques were utilised to investigate the influence of the independent factors on the dependent variable in the Cape Coast Metropolitan Assembly. Descriptive statistics such as frequency and percentages whilst inferential statistics such as correlation and regression were run using SPSS version 23. The results of the study show that competence and independence have a positive and significant effect on how well accounting services are delivered among SMEs in Ghana. The findings of this study may be utilised as a source of reference and beneficial information for researchers, additional studies, and parties who require it to get too concerned concerning accountants’ competence and independence in delivering accountancy services

In line with the natural resource-based view, this paper explores the sustainable business practices (SBPs) of Ghanaian micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs). Qualitatively, the study interviewed eight MSME operators and middle-level managers purposively to assess their use of SBPs and how it affects their businesses. Data collected were edited, coded, and grouped under themes based on the Braun and Clarke thematic framework. The study identified holistic environmental management, eco-preneurship, and regenerative practices as the environmental stewardship drivers among Ghanaian MSMEs. Also, integrated vision and strategy, process efficiency and resource optimization, and risk profiling drive process excellence. Finally, sustainability-focused leadership, internal advocates and change agents, and ongoing education and awareness as drivers for sustainability-oriented culture. The business practices of organizations have continually impacted the immediate environment within which they operate. Consequently, there is a clarion call for businesses to engage in SBPs to mitigate the effect of their operations on the environment. The study brings to bear the SBPs Ghanaian MSMEs are engaged in and how they affect their operations and survival, especially in this era of sustainability.
