Since the research question connected to the impact of the innovation on sustainability is still open, the present work attempts to shed light upon this relationship, considering the Italian Regions. As for the theoretical model, the present article considers a higher order construct (Wetzels et al., 2009), also known as a hierarchical (component) model (HCM), which is based on the Structural Equation Model (SEM) Partial Least Squares (PLS) Path Modelling (PM). In the authors’ opinion, from a policy maker’s and managerial point of view, the possibility of improving firms’ efficiency in terms of several dimensions of sustainable innovation represents a relevant topic that must be investigated

Abstract
Since the research question connected to the impact of the innovation on sustainability is still open, the present work attempts to shed light upon this relationship, considering the Italian Regions. As for the theoretical model, the present article considers a higher order construct (Wetzels et al., 2009), also known as a hierarchical (component) model (HCM), which is based on the Structural Equation Model (SEM) Partial Least Squares (PLS) Path Modelling (PM). In the authors’ opinion, from a policy maker’s and managerial point of view, the possibility of improving firms’ efficiency in terms of several dimensions of sustainable innovation represents a relevant topic that must be investigatedI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
