State management in promoting a green startup ecosystem for small and medium-sized enterprises in the context of digital transformation and Net-Zero commitments

In the context of accelerating climate change and increasingly stringent net-zero commitments, the transition to a green economy has become an essential strategic priority for countries worldwide. This study examines the role of state management in fostering a green startup ecosystem for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), with particular attention to the opportunities and challenges arising from digital transformation and decarbonization commitments. By analyzing both the strengths and limitations of current governance mechanisms, the study highlights the institutional conditions necessary to support environmentally sustainable entrepreneurship and innovation. The findings contribute to a deeper understanding of how public policy and regulatory frameworks can facilitate the development of green startups among SMEs and strengthen their capacity to contribute to sustainable economic growth and climate resilience.
