“…In the context of sustainable supply chain management, collaborative relationships with suppliers positively impact the development of organizational capabilities, which then positively impact a firm's sustainability performance [200]. Similarly, in alliances between governments and firms that aim to foster radical eco-innovations, close interactions in alliances have yielded a generation of new capabilities that can help firms address sustainability problems [127].…”

“…There are also general outcomes of partnerships associated with the creation of associational value, transferred resource value and synergistic value [9], as well as interaction value, which is considered as learning in this article. Thanks to the development of new capabilities and shifts in value frames, as well as the creation of associational, transferred resource and synergistic value, partnerships would help firms improve their environmental performance [136,146,147,189,195,198], social performance [133,167], sustainability performance [200,204], innovation performance [205] and may even improve economic performance [121].…”

Sustainable development goals (SDGs) have become increasingly important for today’s firms as they build sustainability strategies that integrate SDGs into their core activities. Addressing these goals collaboratively, in line with SDG 17—partnerships for the goals, has gained momentum, hence the growing literature on sustainability-oriented partnerships. However, addressing SDGs through partnerships is not straightforward. For firms, contributing to SDGs through alliances and partnerships requires building environmental capabilities and embracing new value frames; in other words, going through the complex process of inter-organizational learning. This paper reviews the literature on sustainability-oriented partnerships with a focus on the inter-organizational learning process. As a result of the review, a model of inter-organizational sustainability learning is presented. This model captures the different levels and types of the inter-organizational learning process; partner and partnership characteristics that impact learning; the environmental conditions that set the conditions for learning to take place; the catalyst and inhibitors of learning; and finally outcomes of learning. This model expands and re-organizes the existing scholarly conversation about inter-organizational learning in the context of sustainability-oriented alliances and partnerships and offers a learning-based understanding of sustainability partnerships to practitioners. Based on the review, the paper proposes ideas for future research and contributes to the development of a future research agenda in the area of sustainability-oriented alliances and partnerships.

“…The introduction of blockchain technology by an industrial company automatically protects against fraud -in the end, fraud cannot be documented. [13] Today, even the largest organizations lack the capacity, resources, and knowledge to integrate information in their supply chains. Typically, the structure of a supply chain network consists of several links (contractors) that depend on content, information, and financial flows.…”

“…To reveal the essence and justify the design capabilities of IBMRSS, in the context of functioning of the innovation process management model [7,8] it is necessary to apply a systematic approach at the regional level. Representation of IBMRSS in the form of a system allows you to take into account the multiplicity of goals of business entities acting as an object of project management, evaluate the influence of external and internal factors, present all possible relationships and relationships that arise during project management, determine the reasonable boundaries of the objects, the number of projects themselves and the level their relevance and adequacy to the prevailing conditions [9,10].…”

The subject of the study is an innovative business model of the regional service sector (IBMRSS). The aim of the work is the formation of methodological provisions for the design of IBMRSS. The article systematizes the IBMRSS management problem. As a result of the research, the following tasks were solved: we considered and substantiated the necessity of designing IBMRSS; disclosed the essence and design concept of IBMRSS; formulated the theoretical provisions of IBMRSS design and explained the main categories; proposed a methodology for assessing the effectiveness of using the innovative potential of the regional services sector and formulated the principles of its functioning; proposed the procedure for performing an expert assessment; identified patterns of development of organizational structures of the service sector that affect its functionality; presented and explained IBMRSS and formulated a general concept of its materialization. The article considers IBMRSS as purposeful process management of innovative development of business entities. These entities form a geographically separate economic space together, consisting of an interconnected variety of activities that consolidate into a single oriented aggregate, with an aim to ensure innovative development. The proposed methodology for assessing the effectiveness of using the innovative potential of the regional services sector allows us to reflect on the state and prospects of IBMRSS implementation, and to adjust the dynamics of innovative development of business entities in the regional services sector in accordance with objective economic laws and patterns of organizations' development. IBMRSS is considered as a layered model, requiring the organization of a variety of business entities and generating various services. The article solves the problem of organizational development at each level of the economic system of the region, with each of its elements, capable of creating the conditions for economic growth through their reduction in the innovation process.
