The Impact of Globalization on the Strategic Management Sustainability of the Venture Capital Industry

This single case study examined how globalization shaped the sustainability of strategic management in Tazweed Venture Capital in Jordan.Qualitative evidence from six senior managers, triangulated with secondary sources, identified three dominant challenges: economic (47%; including competitiveness, regulation, and supply chains), environmental (25%; including waste management, degradation, and energy), and socio-cultural (28%; including language and time-zone frictions, regulatory diversity, and supplier alignment).In addition, the current study identified three opportunity clusters led by culture and society (45%; including partnerships, reputation, and innovation), followed by environment (30%; including renewable integration and footprint reduction) and economic (25%; including cost efficiencies and market expansion).Based on these findings, the study recommended (1) institutionalizing supplier sustainability due diligence and traceability; (2) adopting location-specific practices with measurable targets; (3) embedding cross-functional governance linked to key performance indicators; (4) leveraging partnerships and blended finance for renewables and circularity; and (5) formalizing risk-based Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) materiality screens for cross-border operations.The contribution is a practice-oriented framework that connects globalization pressures to sustainability initiatives and outcomes for venture capital actors in emerging economies.
