Due to their different abilities to improve financial growth and improve social development, small and medium enterprises (SMEs) have been referred to as the economy's backbone. Small- and medium-sized enterprises are crucial for both high- and low-income nations' financial development. Customers grow more conscious of their purchase choices, preferences, and environmental consequences. The financial opportunities for SMEs in the United Arab Emirates to use green innovation methods to address potential obstacles for increasing green goods, processes, and management are examined in this paper; as a result, it is critical to reduce clean technology adoption constraints in small- and medium-sized businesses. To identify significant hurdles, sub-barriers, and ways to overcome impediments to green innovation in the United Arab Emirates, we apply an integrated decision process. Following a detailed literature analysis and the assistance of twelve experts, six primary obstacles, twenty-five sub-obstacles, and strategies to reduce the barriers were identified. Primary and sub-barriers were assessed using the FAHP. The (FTOPSIS) approach was used to rank the strategies. Five SMEs in the United Arab Emirates are putting the suggested integrated decision model to the test. "Financial investment levels 0.646 to 11 percent growth level," according to the FAHP, are the most significant hurdles to SMEs adopting green practices. This research demonstrated a considerable beneficial association between SMEs and financial development and funding in the United Arab Emirates. According to this study, using research methodologies to provide green innovation in SMEs is the best strategy to overcome green innovation and adoption hurdles in small and medium firms and increasing their economics.
由于中小企业(SMEs)在提高财务增长和改善社会发展方面具有不同的能力,因此它们被称为经济的支柱。中小企业对高收入和低收入国家的金融发展都至关重要。随着消费者对其购买选择、偏好和环境后果的意识不断增强。本文探讨了阿联酋中小企业利用绿色创新方法来应对增加绿色产品、流程和管理方面的潜在障碍的财务机会;因此,减少中小企业采用清洁技术的制约因素至关重要。为了确定阿联酋中小企业绿色创新的重大障碍、次级障碍和克服障碍的方法,我们应用了综合决策过程。在详细的文献分析和十二位专家的帮助下,确定了六个主要障碍、二十五个次要障碍和减少障碍的策略。主要障碍和次级障碍使用 FAHP 进行了评估。采用(FTOPSIS)方法对策略进行了排名。阿联酋的五家中小企业正在对建议的综合决策模型进行测试。根据 FAHP,“财务投资水平 0.646 到 11%的增长水平”是中小企业采用绿色实践的最大障碍。这项研究表明,在阿联酋,中小企业与金融发展和资金之间存在着相当大的有益关联。根据这项研究,使用研究方法为中小企业提供绿色创新是克服中小企业绿色创新和采用障碍并提高其经济利益的最佳策略。
