The research emphasizes the importance of dynamic capabilities in sustainable enterprise strategy, offering insights for practitioners and researchers. It underscores the significance of a holistic approach to value creation and continuous adaptation in sustainability. The study, focusing on micro-foundations in an emerging economy, provides unique insights into the dynamics of sustainable firms, contributing to a deeper understanding of their strategic foundations.
