Abstract

The aim of this research is to shed light on establishing a successful integration of environmental practices among small and medium enterprises (SMEs). The purpose is to develop a better understanding of what drives SME participation into potential environmental practices within a context in Finland. Specific objectives are to: 1) assess the willingness to participate (WTP) among Finnish SMEs based on four drivers - financial performance, internal readiness, supplier pressure and governmental regulations; 2) separate respondents into demographical subgroups based on their WTP; and 3) determine features that characterize Finnish SMEs which are WTP based from the studied sample.
