The impact of Eco-innovation Drivers on Environmental Performance: Empirical Results from the Green Technology Sector in Malaysia

Cleaner production has become necessary to create resource-efficient production, as societies have become increasingly concerned with environmental issues. This paper develops a theoretical structural model representing the impact of five latent variables of eco-innovation drivers on the environment...
