Towards Net Zero Emissions

Corporate venture capital (CVC) plays a pivotal role in driving innovation. Our study offers compelling evidence that integrating sustainability into CVC strategies benefits not only the environment but also enhances long-term financial performance. Through CVC programs, corporate parents innovate by creating and executing new business models, leveraging both incremental and radical innovation. The concept of “innovation compensation” serves as a catalyst for encouraging corporations to adopt ecologically sustainable practices.

Our research investigates the influence of green innovation and environmental performance on the long-term success of U.S. CVC parent firms. Furthermore, we examine how corporate social responsibility (CSR) functions as a critical intermediary in this relationship.

How Investors Shape Corporate Waste Management

As environmental sustainability gains prominence, institutional investors are increasingly recognized for their influence on corporate environmental practices. This study investigates how institutional investors' ownership and investment horizon affect corporate waste management in France. The results reveal that long-term (short-term) institutional investors negatively (positively) affect waste generation. We also show that the effect of long-term institutional investors on waste generation has accentuated after the adoption of the French Law on the Energy Transition in 2015 , especially for firms with high environmental performance and strong corporate governance and those operating in environmentally sensitive industries. These results offer actionable insights for policymakers, investors, and managers seeking to promote sustainable waste management practices.

Managing the client portfolio for long-term survival

Our goal was to understand the effectiveness of a company in attracting its customer targets. To do this, we have developed a model that links a company’s marketing activities to the mix of customers who buy from the company. Most marketing models simply ask how a company’s marketing activities influence the number of customers who buy the brand. We wondered how a company’s marketing activities influence the types of customers who buy the brand.

What are Targeting Algorithms?

Not-for-profit organizations have long faced the challenge of balancing budgets when they simultaneously seek to retain and recruit new donors. In principle, existing donors can be targeted based on their previous donation data. However, for new donors, this data is not available or may be difficult to obtain from secondary sources. What should non-profit organizations do? We suggest 2 alternatives.

Should Robotic Warehouses Consider Customer Fairness?

Robotic warehouses have transformed logistics, prioritizing speed and efficiency. However, traditional static priority systems often leave low-priority customers facing excessive delays, raising concerns about fairness. This research, based on Invia, a robotic warehouse company, proposes a dynamic priority allocation model to balance efficiency and fairness. By adjusting order priorities over time, this approach ensures that both high-priority and long-waiting low-priority orders receive timely fulfillment. Through stochastic modeling and simulations, we demonstrate that dynamic prioritization reduces delays compared to static and first-come, first-served (FCFS) models. Case studies in e-commerce and healthcare logistics illustrate the broader impact of fairness in automation. As industries increasingly rely on AI-driven decision-making, the balance between efficiency and equity becomes critical. This research challenges the assumption that robotic warehouses should optimize for speed alone and advocates for a future where fairness plays a central role in automated commerce.

Green innovation: A good for all

Companies face the challenge of combining economic and environmental objectives. An obvious, recurring question is whether, and under what circumstances, an improvement in the environmental performance of a company leads to higher profits. By examining the data on innovation, this study addresses the question of whether environmental innovation (EI) is synergistic with other types of innovation.

Italy’s Waste Crisis: How the Mafia Turned Trash into Tragedy

Pendant plus de 40 ans, une mauvaise gestion des déchets en Italie a permis à la Mafia de les éliminer illégalement, provoquant une crise sanitaire majeure et des taux de cancer en hausse. Malgré les interventions tardives de l’État, les choix économiques ont souvent prévalu sur la protection de l’environnement et des populations. Cette crise révèle que la gestion des déchets est avant tout une question de pouvoir et de justice sociale, touchant de manière inégale les communautés.

The circular economy in European small and medium-sized enterprises

Circular Economy (CE) practices have the potential to increase the sustainable, societal and environmental performance of organisations and therefore contribute to meeting the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The objective of this research is to examine the adoption of sustainable practices by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and its impact on their environmental and societal performance.
