Abstract

With the aim of understanding the relationship between the innovation management of the defence industry and its implications for sustainability from the perspective of the Triple Bottom Line has not been studied, an Structural Equations Modelling (SEM) is proposed that analyzes these relationships through the establishment of strategic alliances between different public and private organizations. The results of the model reveal that there is a positive and significant relationship of innovation on strategic alliances and sustainability and also strategic alliances mediate the relationship between innovation and sustainability, enhancing the effect on innovation.
