“…A covetable modern business feature is proactiveness, which enables taking advantage of unimaginable market opportunities (Al-Mamary & Alshallaqi, 2022). Therefore, entrepreneurial endeavours are often caused by proactiveness in the innovations' involvement (Angelova & Pastarmadzhieva, 2020). Proactiveness is a firm's ability to react to entrepreneurial opportunities in a hypercompetitive and hyper-turbulent environment.…”

The article focuses on the interdependencies within entrepreneurial orientation. The objective of the study was to verify the relationship between risk-taking and innovativeness, on the one hand, and proactiveness on the other hand, as three elements of entrepreneurial orientation of internationalized firms. The main research question the article answers is: In what way do risk-taking and innovativeness influence proactiveness within the interrelated three-dimensional construct of entrepreneurial orientation? The article employs structural equation modelling (CB-SEM) to analyse survey results based on a stratified sampling of 355 internationalized firms from Poland. The empirical findings demonstrate the positive impact of risk-taking (RISK) and innovativeness (INNO) on proactiveness (PROACT) within the interrelated three-dimensional construct of entrepreneurial orientation. Moreover, the level of risk-taking (RISK) and innovativeness (INNO) accounts for 36% of the variation in proactiveness (PROACT), which is considered high in social sciences, including business studies.

“…This only highlights the need for urgent solutions and their implementation in the field of renewable energy (Androniceanu & Sabie, 2022). They can be developed on the innovative basis in this area (Angelova & Pastarmadzhieva, 2020;Gavkalova et al, 2022). The EU's green course is the implementation of sustainable, innovative technological solutions in everyday human life.…”

The global climate crisis poses an existential threat to the natural ecosystem and the entire humanity, while new effects (Covid-19, war in Ukraine, etc.) and factors increase the risk to national security and public stability in the EU countries and beyond. The most important global challenge of our time has prompted the formation of climate change management policies around the world; international agreements have been concluded for this purpose. In 2015 the Paris Agreement was signed and the United Nations General Assembly approved the United Nations Agenda for Sustainable Development until 2030. The goal 13 "Take urgent action to combat climate change and its effects" and tasks for the implementation of this goal were established and approved by the EU legal acts. The European Green Deal was initiated to define the EU's vision of creating a climate-neutral economy by 2050. Those interested in climate change and the green course often raise the question of whether everything possible has been done to prevent (stop) or eliminate climate "erosion" processes. To climate change sceptics, these documents or efforts may seem excessive (and expensive), but it is important to determine whether the full-fledged, comprehensive or targeted communication is available in the EU, whether the dissemination of public information about the processes of the green deal is sufficient and what the management of this information entails. This is because information management is one of the most important components of the successful implementation of the Green Deal. The supreme audit institutions of the EU countries conducted assessment of EU countries in preparation for the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The assessment of the public's knowledge and understanding of the EU green deal was performed using a uniform, approved and generally accepted control model. The article aims to analyse the role of information management in implementation of the Green Deal in the EU and the US by distinguishing the 2020-2022 period of global COVID-19 pandemic based on a Lithuanian case study.

“…In this sense, wine tourists are increasingly aware of the environment and value positively the sustainable practices developed by wineries, as well as the sale of organic, natural and biodynamic wine by wineries (Szolnoki and Tafel, 2022). This is leading wineries to develop more and more ecological innovations that favour their adaptation to the environment while satisfying the environmental needs of wine tourists (Angelova and Pastarmadzhieva, 2020). Despite the growing need, to the best of our knowledge, no previous empirical studies have analysed the role of wine tourism in catalyzing green innovations.…”

PurposeThis research focuses on analysing the effect of wine tourism on green product and process innovations developed by Spanish wineries. In addition, age, size and membership in a protected designation of origin (PDO) are introduced as control variables to increase the precision of the cause–effect relationship analysed.Design/methodology/approachThe study proposes a conceptual model based on previous studies, which is tested using structural equations (partial least squares structural equation modelling [PLS-SEM]) with data collected from 202 Spanish wineries.FindingsThe research results show that wine tourism activity has a positive and significant influence on green product and process innovation.Originality/valueThe research contributes to the academic literature in several ways. First, the study advances knowledge and understanding of the benefits generated by wine tourism. Second, the research contributes to the literature that analyses the wine tourism–sustainability link, since it is predicted that this type of tourism can increase the capacity for green innovation. Third, to the best of the authors’ knowledge, there is no previous research that has analysed wine tourism as a catalytic variable for green innovation. Fourth, the proposed theoretical model has not been previously addressed in the academic literature, so the study represents an important advance in scientific knowledge.
