About my research
Business Innovation is focused on the invention of new strategies for success, which normally depends on a variety of conditions such as market and consumer´s trends. However, underlying assumptions around that success remain static and had a strong influence in the direction of those innovation strategies. The maximization of profit to satisfy private interests and the constant demand for expansion and growth are some of those assumptions. In the meanwhile, ventures with broader and more meaningful missions are challenging those static assumptions. This study is concentrated in the definition of principles, values, challenges and opportunities for social, environmental and circular business models, hence, seeks to propose recommendations and strategies to maximize opportunities for this business, especially in emerging economies such as Colombia.
