These companies responsibly use IP assets to create positive social and environmental impact (or reduce negative impact), and unlock new opportunities for financial (economic) gains. The extent to which firms today use IP rights such as patents and trademarks, and IP more broadly (including informal intellectual assets such as data and trade secrets, and contracts) as a strategic tool to facilitate sustainability remains to be understood better. More specifically, we need understanding of how companies could, or even should manage and use their IP more responsibly in these changing times during which transitions towards sustainable development are so thoroughly and urgently needed. The proposed framework defined using five dimensions namey deliberation/intention, sustainability IP alignment, flexibility and timing, inclusiveness, and co-creation can support managerial decision-making in formulating or re-designing IP strategies to increase organization's social and environmental impact, maximising their contributions (e.g. accelerating transitions) towards building sustainable economies. 000048567 542__ $$fhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0172219023000108 000048567 588__ $$aCrossref 000048567 590__ $$aPublished online: 15-Apr-23 000048567 650_0 $$aTrade secrets. 000048567 650_0 $$aIntellectual property. 000048567 650_0 $$aGreen technology. 000048567 650_0 $$aPatents. 000048567 650_0 $$aCopyright. 000048567 7001_ $$aVimalnath, Pratheeba,$$eauthor. 000048567 7001_ $$aTietze, Frank,$$eauthor. 000048567 7001_ $$aEppinger, Elisabeth,$$eauthor. 000048567 7001_ $$aJain, Akriti,$$eauthor. 000048567 7001_ $$aGurtoo, Anjula,$$eauthor. 000048567 7001_ $$aElsen, Maximilian,$$eauthor. 000048567 7730_ $$tWorld Patent Information$$wWPI 000048567 830_0 $$aWorld Patent Information ;$$v73, June, 2023. 000048567 85641 $$uhttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.wpi.2023.102195$$yonline version 000048567 904__ $$aJournal article 000048567 980__ $$aWPI
