Expansion of business activities comes with various environmental and natural disasters, hence agitating the economies and academia to present the counter and effective solution. Researchers also pinpointed prior that there exists a dark side of business expansion such as lacking of green innovative activities and dynamic capabilities which are creating resistance to achieve sustainability. Besides, literature also claims that green innovation is a crucial segment to achieve competitive edge that leads to sustainable entrepreneurship; however, it is not easier to be achieved as green innovation along green capabilities makes a complex network which consists of embedded partners, hence, also in dire need of green knowledge sharing as well to make the process smooth. In this lieu, the study aims to scrutinize the effectiveness of green knowledge sharing, green dynamic capabilities, and green service innovation on green entrepreneurship in the presence of gender role as a moderator. Empirical estimations calculated through PLS methodology reveal that green knowledge sharing, green dynamic capabilities, and green service innovation has a positive and significant linkage with green entrepreneurship in Vietnam. The outcomes also exposed that the male gender role significantly moderates the said relationship in Vietnam. Findings confirm that adoption sustainability practices such as green knowledge sharing, innovation, and dynamic capabilities are helpful to fulfill sustainable entrepreneurship demand; hence, further research is needed to extend the framework along with existing concepts.
商业活动的扩张伴随着各种环境和自然灾害,从而促使经济界和学术界提出应对之策和有效解决方案。研究人员此前还指出,商业扩张存在阴暗面,比如缺乏绿色创新活动和动态能力,这对实现可持续发展构成阻力。此外,文献还称,绿色创新是获得竞争优势从而实现可持续创业的关键环节;然而,由于绿色创新与绿色能力构成了一个由嵌入式合作伙伴组成的复杂网络,所以实现起来并不容易,因此,也迫切需要绿色知识共享以使这一过程顺利进行。有鉴于此,本研究旨在审视在性别角色作为调节变量的情况下,绿色知识共享、绿色动态能力和绿色服务创新对绿色创业的有效性。通过偏最小二乘法(PLS)进行的实证估计表明,绿色知识共享、绿色动态能力和绿色服务创新与越南的绿色创业有着积极且显著的联系。研究结果还表明,男性性别角色在越南显著调节了上述关系。研究结果证实,采用绿色知识共享、创新和动态能力等可持续发展实践有助于满足可持续创业的需求;因此,需要进一步研究以扩展该框架及现有概念。
