A survey questionnaire created to examine the relevant factors was used to gather the sample data. According to the study's findings, stakeholder satisfaction is significantly impacted favourably by both environmental and economic sustainability. The results show that in order to increase stakeholder satisfaction, SMEs must implement sustainable practises and make use of technical advancements like big data analytics. For policymakers, business professionals, and academic researchers interested in how sustainability and big data analytics are used in SMEs, the study's findings are extremely insightful.
