Green Transition and Environmental Uncertainty: Implications for Entrepreneurial Ecosystems and Human Resource Capabilities

This paper will seek to investigate how green transition and perceived environmental uncertainty influence the innovation ecosystem through the Resource-Based View (RBV) theory. It explains how green transition can help organizations to create valuable, rare and sustainable resources that facilitate innovation, while perceived uncertainty of the environment can result in instability that could impede the development of ecosystems of innovation. The information will be gathered through a structured questionnaire among workers in various organizations, using convenience sampling to target about 300 respondents. SPSS will be used to analyse the data by performing reliability analysis and regression analysis to test how effective green transition and perceived environmental uncertainty are on the innovation ecosystem. Based on the anticipated results, a positive impact of green transition on innovation ecosystem is expected through sustainable practices, technological development, and collaborative innovation. Perceived environmental uncertainty is assumed to impact negatively on the ecosystem of innovation because uncertainty scares away long-term investment, coordination, and innovative actions between organizations. The research will be relevant to RBV theory by focusing on green transition as an organizational resource that supports innovation, whereas environmental uncertainty undermines the efficient use of resources. In practice, the study can inform managers and policymakers on how environmental innovation can be reinforced by taking up green initiatives and addressing environmental uncertainty. However, the cross-sectional design, self-reported information, and convenience sampling may limit generalization. Future research incorporating longitudinal designs or various industries can improve robustness.
