ESG Information Disclosure and Innovation in New Energy Enterprises: A Case Study of CATL

Abstract: In recent years, ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) information disclosure and related ratings have garnered increasing attention from the public and enterprises. ESG information disclosure has gradually become an important way for enterprises to fulfill social responsibility. It not only meets the information needs of various stakeholders but is also closely related to corporate innovation, bearing significant implications for long-term corporate development. This paper employs a combination of literature research and case study methods, selecting CATL (Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited), a representative enterprise in the new energy sector, as a typical case study. By analyzing data and business activities from CATLs ESG reports over the past five years, the relationship between ESG information disclosure and corporate innovation is explored. Additionally, this study incorporates LONGi Green Energy, another industry benchmark, for horizontal comparative analysis to reinforce the research findings. Based on the existing conclusions, the paper further delves into the long-term impacts of the mechanism of ESG information disclosure and corporate innovation. The research results indicate that ESG information disclosure can promote corporate innovation, fostering a virtuous cycle between the two and laying a foundation for the future development of enterprises.

A Study of the Influence Mechanism of Digital Technology Affordance on the Disruptive Innovation of Enterprises

In the context of increasingly fierce global competition, utilizing digital technology to realize disruptive innovation is an effective way for enterprises to gain access to the mainstream market and form long-term competitive advantages. From the perspective of affordance, this study classifies digital technology affordance into cumulative affordance and variant affordance and explores the influence mechanism of digital technology affordance on enterprise disruptive innovation according to three core innovation phases: “fuzzy front-end–development–commercialization”. Based on 241 data points from different industries and types of enterprises, this empirical study found that (1) cumulative affordance and variant affordance have a significant positive impact on disruptive innovation and its “fuzzy front-end—development—commercialization” phases; (2) dynamic capabilities play a mediating role between digital technology affordance and disruptive innovation; and (3) the three aspects of dynamic capabilities—sensing, seizing, and reconfiguring—are greatly enhanced by cumulative affordance and variable affordance. These findings contribute to the research on the relationship between digital technology affordance and disruptive innovation and provide a micro-level perspective on how firms realize disruptive innovation through digital technology affordance.

Research on the Motivation and Effect of Longfor Group's Transformation to Asset-light Operation Mode

Since the real estate marketization reform in 1998, China's real estate industry has continued to focus on asset operation mode, at that time in the golden period of the industry, real estate enterprises only need to hoard a lot of land, wait for the appreciation of the land and then resell, you can get considerable returns. However, in the context of the current slowdown in the economic growth of China's real estate industry, it is difficult for commercial real estate enterprises to continue to operate with heavy assets, so such enterprises begin to seek transformation, and want to change a profit model to match the current market. As a new way for enterprises to accumulate core competence and maximize value, "asset-light operation" model has been highly valued by the academic and business circles. This paper takes Longfor Group, a representative real estate enterprise, as the research object, and makes an in-depth analysis of the company's finance from the perspective of its financial characteristics and financial performance, in order to provide certain theoretical references for the successful application of the transformation and development of similar companies.

Research on the Relationship Between Enterprise Green Transformation and Financial Performance Under the Background of "Double-Carbon"

Under the background of "double carbon", green development has become an important direction of manufacturing enterprises. Taking Company A as an example, this paper analyzes the strategic measures of each stage of the green transformation of enterprises, in order to study the impact of the green transformation on the financial performance of enterprises. The results show that: (1) the green transformation of enterprises can be divided into traditional development period, green transformation period and green development period, and different in different stages.(2) Enterprises can effectively improve their profitability and operating ability through green transformation, but the financial performance caused by the transformation lags behind; (3) merger and acquisition and innovation are the main ways for enterprises to achieve rapid green growth quickly. Based on the characteristics of the three stages of green transformation, enterprises should timely pay attention to the adaptation of their own development strategy and the macro environment, and actively seek for green transformation.

Ambidextrous strategy, institutional support and disruptive innovation: an fsQCA analysis

ABSTRACT With the rise of emerging economies such as China, disruptive innovation (DI) has become a significant way for enterprises to catch up with incumbents. This paper aims to study the impacts of ambidextrous strategies and institutional support on DI. We constructed a theoretical model containing six antecedent conditions and a result variable, including technology ambidextrous balance strategy (TABS), technology ambidextrous complementation strategy (TACS), market ambidextrous balance strategy (MABS), market ambidextrous complementation strategy (MACS), formal institutional support (FS), informal institutional support (IS) and DI. Based on set theory ideas, a fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) was conducted on 230 Chinese manufacturing enterprises. The findings show that: (1) a single antecedent can't alone constitute the necessary conditions for DI; (2) three antecedent configurations can lead to DI; and (3) in particular conditions, ambidextrous strategies and institutional support could be matched to achieve DI. This study offers an alternative approach to understanding factors influencing DI by using set theory ideas and has practical value for promoting DI.

Environmental and social governance performance and enterprise total factor productivity

AbstractWith the popularity of both green development and sustainable investment concepts, evaluation of environmental performance, social responsibility and corporate governance (ESG) is the way for enterprises to protect the environment and, at the same time, interact with stakeholders. This paper first analyses how ESG influences corporate total factor productivity (TFP), then, using A‐share listed company data from 2009 to 2021, conducts an empirical test proving that ESG greatly boosts TFP. Examination of the intermediate mechanism reveals that ESG can improve TFP by raising R&D investment, enhancing the attention of stakeholders, and increasing internal control capabilities. The heterogeneity study shows that, for state‐owned firms, non‐polluting industries, and small‐scale and low‐market degree enterprises, ESG enhances TFP more. Further analysis indicates that ESG uncertainty and ESG catering behaviour will weaken the fostering impact, but environmental regulation has a beneficial regulatory role.

Organizational Sociology Perspectives on University Incubation for Student Entrepreneurship: A Case Study of the Emerging Internet Company miHoYo

Nowadays, the employment situation is grim, and the postponement and reemployment of college students have become the mainstream employment solutions. School-enterprise cooperation and university business incubation are particularly important at this juncture. From the perspective of organizational sociology, it is a win-win way for enterprises to place talent training before universities. In this process, there will be institutional construction born from the perspective of new institutionalism, emphasizing three institutional elements: regulatory, normative and cultural cognitive [1]. There are both restrictions and constraints on talents within the framework, as well as rewards based on prospects and future. In the existing research in China, many scholars focus on the dilemma, relatively critical and examine it; but there is a lack of dismantling and research on extremely excellent cases. Therefore, the author conducts research through the new institutionalism perspective of organizational sociology, giving full play to its interdisciplinary (including sociology, economics, psychology, etc.) many roles, so that organizational sociology, a knowledge so rich and connotative, can complete a complete analysis and study through composite materials, and provide some insignificant reference experience and significance for the field.

A 2TLNS-based exponential TODIM-EDAS approach for evaluating sustainable development of cross-border e-commerce platforms under uncertainty

In the context of globalization, cross-border e-commerce platforms have become the main way for enterprises to achieve international trade transformation and overseas investment. From this, it can be seen that cross-border e-commerce platforms are of great importance to the development of enterprises, and the development of cross-border e-commerce platforms is also a necessary choice for the development of the times. In the new era, in order to make cross-border e-commerce platforms better serve enterprises and bring economic benefits to their development. The sustainable development capability evaluation of third-party cross-border e-commerce (TPCBEC) platform is a MAGDM. Recently, the Exponential TODIM (ExpTODIM) technique and Evaluation Based on Distance from Average Solution (EDAS) technique has been employed to cope with MAGDM issues. The 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic sets (2TLNSs) are employed as a tool for portraying uncertain information during the sustainable development capability evaluation of TPCBEC platform. In this paper, the 2-tuple linguistic neutrosophic number Exponential TODIM-EDAS (2TLNN-ExpTODIM-EDAS) technique is implemented to manage the MAGDM under 2TLNSs. Finally, a numerical study for sustainable development capability evaluation of TPCBEC platform is constructed to validate the implemented technique. Thus, the main advantages of the proposed 2TLNN-ExpTODIM-EDAS technique are outlined: (1) the proposed 2TLNN-ExpTODIM-EDAS technique not only handles the distances information from the 2TLNNAS, but also portrays the DMs’ psychological behavior during the sustainable development capability evaluation of TPCBEC platform. (2) the proposed 2TLNN-ExpTODIM-EDAS technique analyze the behavior of the TODIM technique and EDAS technique as MADM techniques when they are hybridized.

How Manufacturing Companies Can Improve Their Competitiveness

As the global market continues to evolve and competition escalates, the business environment becomes increasingly competitive. How manufacturing companies improve their competitiveness has always been a topic of great concern. Service transformation and product innovation are key factors and are considered to be important ways for enterprises to stand out in the market. Traditional service transformation and product innovation processes often face complex problems, including the diversity of customer needs and fierce market competition. This makes it difficult for companies to accurately capture market opportunities, provide personalized solutions, and respond quickly to changes. At the same time, many companies also face problems with product quality control and production efficiency, which further weakens their competitiveness. It is against this background that the importance of computer vision technology has become increasingly prominent.

Financial policy competition neutrality and the efficiency of outward foreign direct investment

Outward foreign direct investment is an important way for enterprises to participate in international economic cooperation and competition and to build a global “community of interest” and “community of destiny”, and it has become a key issue of concern and research in the academic world. However, existing studies have paid less attention to the willingness or motivation mechanism of OFDI, especially the lack of in-depth research on which motivational factors can drive enterprises to implement OFDI and effectively improve its efficiency. Therefore, based on the capital level perspective, this paper empirically finds, with empirical evidence from Chinese listed multinational corporations from 2009 to 2022, that competitive financial policy neutrality significantly improves OFDI efficiency; at the same time, the capital level strengthens such a facilitating mechanism. The findings provide practical guidance for the government to pay sufficient attention to financial policy competitive neutrality and perceive the incentives of firms' outward investment.

Exploring the User Adoption Mechanism of Green Transportation Services in the Context of the Electricity–Carbon Market Synergy

Promoting green transportation development in the context of electric–carbon market synergy can help promote sustainable transport and tackle climate change. The sharing economy has given rise to innovative and successful business models in recent years. To occupy current and potential markets, many enterprises that participate in sharing economy activities have engaged in a fiercely competitive environment. It is an important way for enterprises to generate profits and improve competitiveness by encouraging consumers’ continuous consumption or stimulating repurchase intentions. This study investigates the effects of consumer satisfaction on consumer repurchase intention (CRI) and how such effects are moderated by the consumer’s risk perception and sustainability awareness in the case of ride-sharing services, which are viewed as a mode of green transportation service. The results of a survey of 358 Chinese consumers who have used ride-sharing services suggest that transaction-based and experience-based satisfaction have positive and significant effects on the CRI of ride-sharing services. Moreover, the results indicate that consumer risk perception negatively moderates the relationships between satisfaction and CRI, while consumer sustainability awareness plays different roles depending on the type of satisfaction (transaction-based versus experience-based). Finally, implications and suggestions for future studies are discussed.

Hybrid QKD-based framework for secure enterprise communication system

This research paper proposes a hybrid quantum key distribution (QKD)-based framework for secure enterprise communication using post-quantum cryptography (PQC) and smart cards. The paper discusses the limitations of current PQC implementations and the need for a hybrid approach that combines classical non-PQC algorithms with quantum-resistant PQC algorithms to establish secure communication channels. The proposed framework utilizes point-to-point QKD links between quantum devices to establish a shared secret key, which is then used to encrypt and decrypt data using PQC algorithms. Smart cards are used for authentication and key synchronization to ensure the security of end-user devices. The paper also reviews relevant literature on QKD and PQC and discusses future work. The proposed framework offers a cost-effective and secure way for enterprises to communicate with each other.

Study on Financial Risk and Countermeasures in Enterprise Mergers and Acquisitions--Take LVMH’s Acquisition of Tiffany as an Example

M&A is an important approach for enterprises to achieve industrial upgrading and scale effect, reduce operating costs, and promote the diversified development of enterprises. The financial risks that often appear in the process of M&A are the key to the success of M&A and the reorganization of enterprises. Existing equity and economic problems make enterprises easily fall into financial disputes and cause huge losses. Investment and mergers are important ways for enterprises to expand scale, enter new markets, and acquire new technologies or mature brands. Through investment and merger, market share can be increased, competitiveness can be enhanced, and the financial statements of enterprises can be enhanced, but risks in merger and acquisition are also accompanied. Through the case study of LVMH Group’s merger and acquisition of Tiffany, this paper will analyze the financial risks and countermeasures in the merger and acquisition and extract feasible and effective measures from LVMH Group’s treatment methods to help both parties control the risks in the merger process and achieve the purpose of merger and acquisition.

РЕЛОКАЦИЯ ПЕРСОНАЛА: НОВЫЕ ВЫЗОВЫ И ВОЗМОЖНОСТИ

Solving the problems of industrial production growth, business scaling, and promotion of new technologies to the regions is impossible without staffing enterprises with qualified workers. At the same time, in the conditions of the modern labor market, it is staffing that becomes one of the main risks in achieving the assigned tasks. One of the ways for enterprises in adapting to the conditions of the modern labor market is personnel relocation. That is why in recent years the issue of the labor mobility and personnel relocation has become the subject of both theoretical and empirical research. Drawing on the analysis and synthesis of statistical data, research results of specialized research institutes, consulting companies, expert opinions, and the experience of Russian companies in the research topic, the authors formulated the concept and characterized the content of the term “personnel relocation”, identified the main factors influencing employee decision-making about relocationю They also shown the main challenges for employers when developing personnel relocation programs and the ways to solve them are shown.

An evolutionary mechanism of social preference for knowledge sharing in crowdsourcing communities

Crowdsourcing community, as an important way for enterprises to obtain external public innovative knowledge in the era of the Internet and the rise of users, has a very broad application prospect and research value. However, the influence of social preference is seldom considered in the promotion of knowledge sharing in crowdsourcing communities. Therefore, on the basis of complex network evolutionary game theory and social preference theory, an evolutionary game model of knowledge sharing among crowdsourcing community users based on the characteristics of small world network structure is constructed. Through Matlab programming, the evolution and dynamic equilibrium of knowledge sharing among crowdsourcing community users on this network structure are simulated, and the experimental results without considering social preference and social preference are compared and analysed, and it is found that social preference can significantly promote the evolution of knowledge sharing in crowdsourcing communities. This research expands the research scope of the combination and application of complex network games and other disciplines, enriches the theoretical perspective of knowledge sharing research in crowdsourcing communities, and has a strong guiding significance for promoting knowledge sharing in crowdsourcing communities.

Analysis of Geely's Acquisition of Volvo

Cross-border M&A is one of the ways for enterprises to enhance their international competitiveness as soon as possible. Enterprises may gain technology and other excellent resources through cross-border M&A. In 2008, the financial crisis triggered by the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States caused the consumer market to shrink, and a large number of car companies suffered serious losses and faced a huge risk of bankruptcy, so some well-run companies acquired those companies that were on the verge of bankruptcy. This study examines Geely's acquisition of Volvo during the financial crisis and analyzes the impact of the acquisition. According to the analysis, this acquisition has enabled Geely to obtain many advanced technologies and patents, increase market share, and show a growth trend in revenue. However, the large amount of debt in the acquisition process also makes Geely face huge financial risks in the later stage, as well as problems such as corporate culture integration, and overall, this acquisition provides a good foundation for Geely's subsequent development. These results demonstrate the unique features of Geely's acquisition of Volvo under the financial crisis, summarize the impact of the later period, and make recommendations for Chinese enterprises to carry out cross-border mergers and acquisitions..

A study of the application of linear programming to material transportation problems

With the quick development of the world logistics industry, the transportation cost of Chinese enterprises is still very high. There is still a lot of room for development compared with other developed countries. Reducing transportation costs, especially transportation costs, is one of the effective ways for enterprises to improve their income. Due to the rapid development of China's industry, the demand for various materials is increasing day by day. Therefore, China's material transportation is also getting more and more attention. Operations Research is a subject of establishing mathematical models to solve practical problems. It is very necessary to use the relevant theories of operations research to solve material transportation problems. By reading the related literature at home and abroad and analysing the characteristics of material transportation problems and the application of operations research in this field, it is found that the on-table operation method is unable to effectively solve the complex material transportation problems. In order to reduce the transportation cost of enterprises, by conducting theoretical and practical research on the material transportation problem in the field of logistics management, this paper aims to simulate and calculate it by establishing a mathematical model and using Lingo software.
