The following table presents a 2-dimensional imaginative space framework of sustainoentrepreneurship, formulated by me:
Economic sustainability bottom-line
|
Environmental sustainability bottom-line
|
Social sustainability bottom-line
|
|
Global level
|
A
|
B
|
C
|
Local community level
|
A
|
B
|
C
|
2 dimensions: geographical scope
dimension; sustainability performance dimension
A + B + C = Total enterprise sustainability performance
objective
A, B and C are stated as subjective weighting factors: e.g., 1 + 1 + 2 = 4.
Sustainability has been defined as: "the process of people maintaining change in a balanced environment, in which the exploitation of resources, the direction of investments, the orientation of technological development and institutional change are all in harmony and enhance both current and future potential to meet human needs and aspirations" (re: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainability).
The 2-dimensional imaginative space framework adopts the triple bottom-line thinking.
About the topic of sustainoentrepreneurship: "Sustainopreneurship (entrepreneurship and innovation for sustainability) is a concept that has emerged from the earlier concepts social entrepreneurship and ecopreneurship, via sustainability entrepreneurship. The concept means to use creative business organizing to solve problems related to sustainability to create social and environmental sustainability as a strategic objective and purpose, at the same time respecting the boundaries set in order to maintain the life support systems in the process. In other words, it is a "business with a cause" – where the world problems are turned into business opportunities by deployment of sustainability innovations" (re: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainopreneurship).
