Digital Transformation and Sustainability in Cooperatives Enterprises: A Literature Review

In recent years, the relationship between digital transformation and sustainability has been widely discussed by scholars in various organisational contexts and disciplines. This study is concerned with analysing these two concepts in the context of cooperative enterprises. The interest in investigating Digital Transformation and sustainability arises from the way cooperatives strive to achieve their goals, which often differ significantly from those of public and for-profit enterprises. The objective of this research is, therefore, to develop a literature review that discusses the digital transformation and sustainability of cooperatives, identifying their main characteristics and providing some insights for future research. This research highlights aspects related to the cooperative sector and proposed an additional lens to analyse the phenomena of digitalisation and sustainability.
