Environmental Innovation and The Pandemic: The Role of External Collaboration and Technological Readiness

Project overview

In this study, we design an empirically testable model to elicit the real impact of the 天发娱乐棋牌_天发娱乐APP-官网|下载 pandemic on environmental innovation in the United Kingdom. We further examine how this impact is influenced by a firm’s level of external collaboration and technological readiness. Effective external collaboration with other firms, research institutes, government entities, and the private sector has been critical for a firm’s resilience to pursue environmental innovation (Markovic et al., 2021; Chesbrough, 2020). Technological readiness reflects a firm’s preparedness to pursue and implement new environmental innovations (Zhang et al., 2020).
To achieve this goal, this study aims to answer the following research questions: (1) What is the impact of 天发娱乐棋牌_天发娱乐APP-官网|下载 on a firm’s environmental innovation? (2) Whether the severity of this impact depends on the firm’s level of collaboration (level of open innovation)? (3) Whether the technological readiness significantly moderates the impact of 天发娱乐棋牌_天发娱乐APP-官网|下载 on a firm’s environmental innovation? This study will empirically examine these research questions.
