Abstract
This chapter provides readers with an overview of empirical research on corporate decision-making about the implementation of ecologically innovative practices (i.e., corporate eco-innovation). Through a systematic review of 100 academic publications, we shed light on the past and present state of corporate eco-innovation research. We initially address the divergence of the terminologies and definitions for eco-innovations in business contexts and its measurements used in quantitative regression analysis. Despite the paucity of prior research on this subject, we aim to provide an overview of the influential factors, driving forces, and motivations that underpin firms’ eco-innovation decision making, as well as its impact on corporate structure and processes, organising strategies, operational efficiency, and other performance. We conclude with some suggestions for future research on corporate eco-innovation.
