The aim of this edited book is to provide a comprehensive overview of the opportunities and challenges related to innovation for sustainability. Combining work from both emerging and established scholars in different academic fields, this book provides an integrated understanding of the topic from four perspectives. First, the big picture: frameworks, types, and drivers; second, strategy and leadership; third, measurement and assessment and fourth, tools, methods and technologies.

“Readers interested in company level accounts of innovation will find this book very useful and both the book and its individual chapters are likely to stay relevant for years. The book admirably achieves what it sets out to do. … It is a book for those who want to know more about firm-level product and process innovation. I can certainly recommend the book for this purpose.” (Paul Upham, R&D Management, August 29, 2019)
