Exploring the literature on resources and capabilities for sustainable innovation: a bibliometric analysis

Sustainable innovation demands strategic-driven efforts to allocate resources and capabilities for this purpose. However, although recognizing sustainable innovation as a strategic issue, many companies fail in developing resources and capaabilities for it. Neglected or not by practitioners, this paper assumes that resources and capabilities for sustainable innovation represent an emerging topic from the academic perspective and aims to review the literature about it. By using the methodological approach of the systematic literature review, this study analyzed a sample of 312 papers in order to provide a literature overview and a research agenda. It was found that this research topic is still in an incipient stage since most of the studies were published in the last four years. Furthermore, most of the papers come from a few countries, such as the United States, Italy, Canada, and Spain, which indicates a great potential for growth. Bibliometric and network analysis highlighted different theoretical perspectives linking resources and capabilities to sustainable innovation, remarkably the resource-based view and the natural resource-based view. Finally, it was found future research paths concerning to barriers and readiness factors for the adoption of sustainable innovations; theoretical perspectives; resources and capabilities; context and countries; and, TBL dimension of sustainable innovations.
