| description | There is growing concern that the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) may not be achieved within the
proposed timeline, partly due to the insufficient focus on the sustainable development of small and medium-sized
enterprises (SMEs). SMEs play a pivotal role in the global economy but are often overlooked in sustainability
initiatives. To address this gap, this study conducted a systematic literature review to map existing research on SMEs
sustainable development. The PRISMA framework was adopted for this study. Scopus was utilized to identify relevant
literature, covering a 10-year period from 2015 to 2024. Data analysis was conducted using Microsoft Excel for
descriptive analysis and SPSS (version 25) for literature classification. The review revealed a growing interest in SMEs
sustainability, with research in this area gradually increasing. The study identified seven primary drivers of SMEs'
sustainable development: societal influence, regulatory pressure, sustainable finance, corporate culture, cost savings,
digitalization, and bricolage. |
