This book presents the ways in which three key issues of the modern
world - transformation, digitalisation and sustainability - may be
combined for the greater good and highlights which activities may
be designed to integrate these three directly linked paths. It is
an experience-derived and evidence-based analysis of how
sustainable development impacts the transformation of the economy
and how the business environment influences economic transformation
in the light of the sustainable development principles. The book
addresses the current challenges and shows how the economy can be
transformed further in an organic way that meets the needs of
society and the environment, through the use of digital
technologies. The multidisciplinary approach to sustainability
transformation is one of the core strengths of the book, as it
emphasises the need for a holistic approach to the functioning of
sustainable development ideas at the micro- and macro-levels. The
authors present a fresh perspective, particularly around the
regulations stimulating the sustainable development of enterprises,
tax systems, and the allocation of capital. Moreover, the book
brings together and makes available the results of the latest
research on the subject, using a vast amount of primary evidence
and both quantitative and qualitative methodology. The authors'
insights go beyond the obvious effects of economic transformation
and call attention to ways in which smart technology and
digitalisation may help to achieve the Sustainable Development
Goals. The book is directed first and foremost towards academics,
researchers and students, but also professionals, who would like to
expand their knowledge of sustainable development from a scientific
perspective. Chapter 1 of this book is available for free in PDF
format as Open Access from the individual product page at
