Abstract [eng] |
Nowadays, corporate social responsibility is important not only for large corporations. Increasingly, young or developing businesses, such as startups, consider CSR as one of the key parts of their strategy. However, it is noticeable that companies, regardless of their size or operating time, still face barriers to apply CSR initiatives in their activity. In the scientific literature, this problem has also been poorly explored, especially in the context of startups. The aim of this study is to identify barriers to the implementation of corporate social responsibility in start-ups. To achieve this aim, the following objectives were set: reveal the problematic aspects of barriers to the implementation of corporate social responsibility in start-ups; conceptualize the theoretical model of barriers to the implementation of corporate social responsibility in start-ups; strengthen the research methodology of the implementation of corporate social responsibility in startups; to empirically assess the barriers faced by start-ups in implementing CSR. |
