The Dynamics of Green Innovation in B2B Industries
Author: Friederike Esther Rhein
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3658321482
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 373
Book Description
In this book a quantitative, dynamic model is developed to explain and explore the diffusion of green new products in a business-to-business (B2B) context. Considering the case of emerging bioplastics, this goal is reached through a mixed-methods design, combining qualitative and quantitative methods over three phases. After an interview study with key-value chain actors an experimental vignette technique is applied to further study relevant factors in the micro (firm) level adoption process. Integrating the empirical findings, the diffusion model is developed and simulated at the macro (industry) level using a System Dynamics (SD) approach. Results explain the underlying dynamics and critical conditions for adoption to become self-sustaining.

TheAdoption of “Green” Consumer-Use Innovations
Author: Marit Sophie Hamprecht
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 53
Book Description
Over the last decades, growing environmental concerns have become an alarming phenomenon accompanying economic growth. Green innovations are considered an important instrument in fighting these problems and achieving sustainable development. Although the past years have shown that the adoption rates of environmentally friendly products and services are growing, green innovations often fail in diffusion, not reaching a broad enough level of acceptance to have a significant positive impact. This paper aims at providing a first starting point to practitioners searching for guidance and frameworks for the market implementation of their green innovations. To achieve this, a systematic literature review is conducted, analyzing the current state of research on the factors that are influencing the (non)adoption of green consumer-use innovations and the implications for green innovation commercialization management. From the reviewed literature, six categories of drivers and barriers are identified. It is found that product-/service-related factors, supplier-related factors, as well as communication strongly influence consumers ́ adoption behaviour. The exact way those factors are perceived depends on the demographics, adopter-related factors, and society-related factors. For successful green innovation commercialization, customers should be segmented along those last three categories, and sales and marketing strategies should be adapted to the targeted segment and the stage of the diffusion process.
