Item type:Publication, From Challenges to Impact: Drivers, Barriers, and Shared Resources in Sustainability‐Oriented Corporate‐Startup Alliances(Wiley, 2025-05-22); ;Nicole Dougnac ;Leandro J. Llorente‐GonzálezMartin GeissdoerferDespite the growing importance of corporate sustainability, research on strategic alliances between corporations and sustainable startups remains limited. While corporations struggle with implementing radical sustainability‐oriented innovation, sustainable startups face challenges in scaling and validation. Given their complementary resources, partnerships between these entities offer significant potential to accelerate sustainable transitions. However, existing literature has largely overlooked the distinct drivers, barriers, and shared resources that characterize sustainability‐oriented corporate‐startup alliances, focusing instead on conventional or digital‐oriented collaborations. This study addresses this gap through a multiple case study of eight sustainability‐driven corporate‐startup partnerships in Chile. Using a grounded theory approach, we identify 21 drivers, 14 barriers, and 10 shared resource types, revealing the dual role of resource acquisition and legitimacy‐building in fostering sustainable collaborations. Our findings offer new theoretical insights and practical recommendations for enhancing the success of sustainability‐oriented alliances.9 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings
Item type:Publication, The Effect of Open Innovation on Eco-Innovation Performance: The Role of Market Knowledge Sources(2021) ;Mario Fernando Sanchez Carrion<jats:p>Organizations use multiple strategies to increase the number and impact of eco-innovations as a path to achieve competitive advantage. In this article, we study the role of open innovation activities, specifically related to market sources, as a driver of eco-innovation performance. While studies have looked at the relationship between these two emergent innovation phenomena from a broad perspective, we explore whether specific market knowledge sources—clients, suppliers, competitors, and consultants—and their combined use—affect eco-innovation performance. We rely on insights from theories of open innovation and sustainable and environmental innovation to build a theoretical framework about the determinants of eco-innovation performance from a market-driven open innovation perspective. Our sample consists of 3047 firm-year observations obtained from three consecutive panels of the Chilean Innovation Survey (2009–2014). We found that clients, suppliers, competitors, and consultants as knowledge sources positively influence eco-innovation performance in firms. In addition, our results suggest that a combination of client sourcing with supplier and consultant sources of knowledge positively affect eco-innovation performance. We discuss the implications of our findings for open innovation activities on eco-innovation and suggest ideas for future research.</jats:p>1Scopus© Citations 34 - Some of the metrics are blocked by yourconsent settings

Item type:Publication, Digital social entrepreneurship: the N-Helix response to stakeholders’ COVID-19 needs(2021) ;María J. Ibáñez; ; <jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>This study explores the emergence of a new entrepreneurship phenomenon (digital social entrepreneurship) as a result of the collaboration among many agents (N-Helix), given the government’s limited capacity to respond to the stakeholders’ needs satisfaction related to an exogenous event (e.g., the COVID-19 pandemic). Our theory development is based on three ongoing academic debates related to (a) the unrepresentativeness of <jats:italic>the stakeholder theory</jats:italic> in entrepreneurship research; (b) the emergence of <jats:italic>digital social entrepreneurship</jats:italic> (DSE) as a bridge between stakeholders’ needs, socio-economic actors, and digital-social initiatives; and (c) the role of <jats:italic>N-Helix</jats:italic> collaborations to facilitate the emergence of global knowledge-intensive initiatives and the rapid adoptions of open innovations. Our results support our assumptions about the positive mediation effect of DSE in the relationship between N-Helix collaborations and stakeholders’ satisfaction. Notably, results show how pandemic has intensified these relationships and how DSE in N-Helix collaborations can generate social impacts globally. Some implications for policy-makers have emerged from our results that should be considered during/post-COVID-19 pandemic.</jats:p>Scopus© Citations 69 1
