My research centers on the relationship between sustainability and innovation efficiency, with a focus on how companies can enhance their innovation processes while prioritizing environmental and regulatory factors. I explore the influence of government regulations, environmental resource-saving practices, and corporate sustainability initiatives on green innovation. By analyzing data from various industries, my work demonstrates that firms actively engaging in sustainability efforts, such as reducing pollution, conserving energy, and minimizing waste, achieve higher innovation efficiency. This leads to both improved competitive positioning and long-term success.Another key area of my research examines sustainability reporting across regions, particularly comparing practices in China and the United States. Using advanced methods like topic modeling and sentiment analysis, I assess how companies communicate their sustainability efforts, highlighting regional and sector-specific differences in addressing climate risks and opportunities. My research provides valuable insights into how businesses can integrate sustainability into their core strategies, not only contributing to environmental well-being but also enhancing their innovation capabilities and market competitiveness.
